ok ok ill get on the rest. This was really a tank brought back from the dead.

bought it with a metal stand a sump and the skimmer off a member. i was not happy with the sump and the metal stand. So I made my own and ordered the sump after alot of design stress.

The white bg is pretty different but it's a nice change to see it. Is that Sean's (kwirky) old tank?

at this point, I have no idea who I bought it off of. I only remeber he was not present at pick up, and it was his dad I had to deal with.

I felt really bad about him being there and not me(in the hospital), seeing as i don't think he gave you everything that i had set aside. Being old and stubborn i think he thought you were going to try and get things that were not included.

Anyways. the tank is looking great. next time I am in town it would be nice to see and maybe drop off a frag or something to make up for that messy transaction.

never feel bad about being in the hospital :/ some things in life you cant control. the only thing I left behind was the bucket of rock, but I have plenty already I wasnt to concerned with that.

But your more then welcome to come by and have a look.

I am extremely happy with this tank, as its built like one.

Skimmer seems to be working well on top of that, after jdigital borrowed it and said there was some excessive noise, I stole the silencer from my coralife super skimmer, and its dead silent. My computer case puts out more noise then my aquarium now.

Hmmm temp 80.7 and climbing and the heater is on. I see by your graphs that your temp has never been that high before. Heater stuck? Man i love those web enabled reef controlers.
