Oh...also picked up a sweet little zoa colony from Ocean City Pics to come!

Hey Drew,

Where did you get the Viper 150w HQI?? I'm looking to get one for my 20g. $170 doesn't sound so bad at all...

Pisces. I didn't see anymore on the shelf, but I also wasn't looking for anymore. They used to sell them with the JBJ nano cube kits, but I guess they decided to break them apart and sell it all separately. I thought it was a good deal, as I've seen them as high as $299 locally.

holy crap... 150W on a 10G... hmmm i was getting heat issues with my 175 on my 20G... hence why i added fans today.. haha. There goes half your budget eh? LOL

Good choice on beer... I'm drinking the exact same right now.

Well, yes....it is a contest tank....but it's also a permanent downgrade from my larger tank, so I didn't want to skimp on lighting (waste money when I'll only be buying something better down the road anyway). So yeah. Livestock will be fairly cheap for me. At least for now

Hope this stand doesn't suck. Hah! It says it can carry a 120 lb. load. So yeah. Oh, and yes...I know...I need to vacuum

P.S. Is there anyone out there (in Calgary) who can drill a couple holes for 1/2" bulkheads? Bueller? Bueller? Anyone?

[JDigital]

I can drill the holes... just need the drill bits.. haha.

I am borrowing a 3/4" if you wants to go that size...

As for your stand... I would mostly be worried about the roller wheels giving out before the rest of the stand.
