f you watch the whole thing you'll see I've abandoned drawer slides finally in favour of a pvc light rack. It allows me to slide each light individually front-to-back and side-to-side. Lovin' it!
Brett things look great, nice job! I love that PVC rig for the lighting.
What a cool idea!

I can't remember who I saw on canreef use a pvc slider like that but I'm just a copycat =) I added an extra degree of freedom I guess. Was going to have an inner and outer sleeve for the verticals and use a peg system to set height as well but got lazy.

As for the 'cheezie tune' watch yourself them's fightin' words!

Dude. That's genius. That's exactly what I was looking for. Consider that idea stolen. Well, borrowed with credit anyway.

My spots are more itchy than painful. They look redder but only because the areas around them seem to have calmed down. My right arm has more and they're larger. It was in the water longer. What baffles me is these are point-source looking things almost like I got bit. I don't recall the rocks touching my arms directly so why are my arms simply red all over? Strange.

That's strange about your arms I hope they heal and feel better soon.

Note to self: buy reef gloves to wear when moving Doug's rock to his new tank.
