it is indeed looking really sweet mang......I cant remember whether or not I asked you this at the shop before or not.....were you building a "catwalk" over the sump?.....or were you planning on access for working on the tank through the front?

Thx guys.

Doug there is complete access from the back of course and then there are 2 doors in the front and one door on the end opposite the sump. I don't really think of the sump side as having access but I can sorta lean diagonally from front or back I guess and get to it...

Thanks mike she's doing awesome. Her biggest complaint these days is my build is taking too long. Tank transfer means she gets her sectional couch and Xmas tree with the new space. She always asks me what else I need for the tank. True love I tell ya

Thanks guys =)

Doug how much for a swallowtail pair out of curiosity?

You're all welcome for a visit anytime once I have stuff transferred and assuming I don't kill my stuff in the process lol.

I have the sump full now and the skimmer is breaking in on the rock. Time to play the waiting game!

What kind of swallowtail has caught your interest?

Haha getting close eh? This is the worst time, knowing it's all technically there but you have to fill it and wait for cycles and what not..
