So i put my tank and stand up for sale expecting it to take a bit for it to sell. Well the next day after listing it I sold it to a person I do work for. 2 hours later I got an email responding to the add. I told him that I sold it already sorry. Well to my surprise he offered me 75.00 more than what I was asking for it - lucky me!

A good thing/bad thing though he was coming into town the next day and wanted to pick it up. Problem for me is I had no place for my current live stock. So out I went trying to find a temp. tank till I ordered and got mine. I managed to pick up a 55 gallon tank with overflow which I needed. That night I worked till 4:00am getting my live stock out of the tank and into a new home.

I was selling only the tank and stand and was planning on keeping my light. When he showed up he made me an offer to sell everthing which I couldnt refuse.

Next problem - now I have no light, out shopping again.

I managed to get a Giesemann Infinity - LUCKY ME!

Well this past week has been soooooo busy getting this all looked after but It all turned out for the better.

I have ordered my tank and it should be here in the next week or so. 120 gallon 3 side starfire. This thing is going to look great.

Couple of shots of how I got things running for the time being.





I just love the look of this light, and the light colors is amazing!

not sure if this is covered in ur posts... where did you pick that outlet switchboard up at? I could use a couple of those. also how much? Tank looks like its coming along..cant wait to see it done

Thanks you, I got the aquascaping pretty much done tonight yea for me! Also added sand, which is a swtch for me as I have always had a glass bottom tank.

the power switch was purchased at Mothers Music in calgary - I love it!

ahh, 2am Aquascaping sessions.. fun! :-) but where are the pics?????

[Fragzilla]

one main structure wasn't enough - i did say that what I had in my mind and what I saw didn't match!

I will be posting a pic or two tomorrow, it will take a bit for the tank to clear after the sand storm

Well the dust has settled after adding the sand. It has been years since I have had a sand bottom tank and I really like it, it reflects the light very nice. My fish and other things thought it was pretty good too!

I am now pretty much done the aquascaping. I added another structure and got the zoa garden in place. As time goes on I will go higher on the
2nd structure and will fill in the zoa garden as I get more.

Here are a few pics of how it sits tonight.

I also got started on the return plumbing, its pretty much complete i was just short a couple of elbows.

I like!

The 2nd rock-pile does balance it nicely and I see you went with a fairly deep layer of sand - Is that almost 2" ?

Are you going to go with a clean-up crew, gravel-vac or combination of the two?

Pity its going to take the fish a month to get used to the new light schedule, I see you posted the pics at ~3:30am.
