By the way Sean, I noticed that there were 4 pipes leading in (or out) of the overflow. Sorry if I missed this somewhere in the thread, but was curious what they were. I can see that two of them are herbie overflows (one main and one emergency), but can't tell what the two middle ones are?

Hmmm, make you a deal: Take back the YTOOL problem fixing and I'll release more progress pictures in my build thread. Geez, don't you work for a living?? What ridiculous company do you work for that lets you slack off so much? Get a job you bum.

I would be more than happy to take it back! It was only taken off my plate because the "specialist" was going to get it fixed much much much much sooner than I would have ??? AND, I would have more work to do if a certain someone would fix the ytool already so that I could get some data to play with :P

Okay, enough with the hijacking. I have another question! Are you going to sell your old tank ? Or have you already sold it?

Only had him a few days. So far the rest of the crowd is giving him too hard of a time and he is eating well so I'm hoping for the best.

I picked that piece up as well as a couple other crazy shapes off of a fellow canreefer who was shutting down his tank. And the best part was I only paid like 2 bucks a pound for it all.

Of the four pipes one is completely shut off with a ball valve. The second is partially shut off with another ball valve then with the third one I have a gate valve to tweak the herbie. Then of course the fourth is an emergency drain.

I started this thread a while back and figure its time to update things. The biggest disappointment was the achilles not making it. The others tangs stressed him out too much and he never had a chance to settle in. A couple months ago I added a purple tang my cousin wanted me to have when he shut down his tank. He get along just fine with everyone, wish I could have said the same about the achilles. Other recent additions include a tailspot blenny, long nose hawk as well as numerous corals. Here are a couple pictures of some new toys as well as some decent livestock pics.









Looking forward to this frag growing out.
