OH you might regret them words lol those clowns better start looking at where they can hide quick. I had one and not for long a few years back and I think it goes down as one of the worst buys!! Hope I'm wrong

Loudest part of my system would be the nagging sound I hear on a regular basis about how much time and money I spend on the tank.

Very nice stand! Instantly reminded me of JBNY's original design which was an old favorite of mine on RC.

Job well done.. I just wanna say that it is amazing how crazy we all get about coral... and it truly controls the reasons we do things... but a sexy stand just screams attention to detail. And that alone makes the tank that much more beautiful. So nice job and cant wait to see the final product.

This is a nice clean looking setup here. It'll just get nicer as your selection of livestock goes into the tank. Thanks for sharing.

Yup, I just installed that tank yesterday. What are you planning for corals? Mixed? Softies, LPS? I heard your set up looks incredible in person. Mike from Yellowknife saw it. Looking forward to seeing your tank grow out long term.
