I was asked a while back to post a pic of my quarantine tank...not that there is much to look at but here it is

and because some people have an unnatural obsession with sumps, plumbing and such, here are a couple more pics of my fish room

Can anyone spot the changes? (anyone except Dave anyway)

I was going to sell all my tunze streams to pay for the new pumps but the 2 in the middle add a little extra umph with the vortechs...I guess the next dog I groom will be charged a little extra...Lance, does Molly want a $300 beagle bath?

Here's a pic of my pearlberry acro frag. It's decided it really likes my tank and is now taking off...there should be lots of cootie covered frags available by christmas

Marie, for $300 you'd have to keep her.
So, how do you like the Vortechs? I'm thinking of getting some for the new tank.

They are wonderful...definitely worth getting.

Have you had a chance to play with the different modes yet, or do you just have them going full blast?

p.s. watch out for tip burn...I found out the hard way

What size Vortechs did you get Marie? 20's or 40's?

I bought the 40's. I now have nearly 12,000gph of water moving around my tank when the pumps are on full speed
