OK, sounds great


Now, back on track. Have you had any quotes yet on tank build price, with all 3 sides Starfire? I love Peninsula style tanks, and some day WILL build my own. but just not here, we need a bigger home, so no sence getting all carried away here.

Yea, I got a quote for triple Starfire... The tank pretty much doubles in price to add the two long sides... Way outta of my price range for this, it's enough extra cash to buy the new skimmer, sump/qt tanks, and probably the Hammerhead pump... I think I can live without it...

EDIT: and maybe the extra 4x24W T5 supplemental lights... MAYBE! lol

My arms aren't sore in the sense of muscles... but I sliced my knuckles/hands and right forearm pretty bad on the euro-bracing... But yea it was pretty bad... Worse than I could EVER let my tank get... they are 2sides viewable and you could barely see through..

Plus I don't think they have enough salt in the system because my cuts never hurt while in the water, but as soon as I dipped my hand in a tank at RC and my own tank at home.. my hand lit on fire!!! So I suspect that's why they have had a lot of fish die lately.
