x2 on the garden hose info..heard that many times before too.

The build is looking great. I was looking at the fixture at AA and it sure did a great job of pushing light into that tank. I bet you'll love it...at least until you need to replace 3 MH bulbs and 12 T5 bulbs...lol.

Looks mint! Can't wait to come down and take a look at it. Things always seem to look way better in person

Can't wait till this one is fully stocked.

Looks great, I like the rockwork

Can't wait to see it up and running

Thanx for the concern about the garden hose. The water is not in contact long enough for there to be any worries about leaching chemicals. There are many systems out there that have been filled with garden hoses and never had any problems. I'm just glad I didn't post the pictures of me bleaching the tank with Javex. LOL!

Bought the tank as I carried it off the truck.

Picked up some live rock the other day from Aquatic Addictions. Trying to cycle the tank with as much rock as possible. I was thinking of using PVC structure to add some more archways. Will post more pictures of the progress soon.
