Haha funny! It's just big... looks like a fruit stand of frags again but if you guys wanna come see it by all means do it! Why don't we organize a calgary tank tour or something? Up close and in person you'll maybe feel a lot better as really it's nothing to write home about! Hopefully in a year it's gonna be looking like a reef again =)

Brett, looks awesome dude! Are those plastic zip ties holding your lights on? Are you worried they might get brittle over time?

The same zip ties are holding those massive 30lb boulders together for my largest tower so here's hoping they're built to last haha. The rockwork eventually fuses together courtesy of the sps (I learned this dismantling my 97) but yeah I may need to use some threaded bolts for the lights later good call.

The plate that they mount to does not get hot I already checked into that. If they're going to fail it'd be from pure old age (they're uv resistant too).

On another note... sure is a nice feeling to finally turn my kole loose in some decent space. He never seemed unhappy before but the way he glides now (and the squareback too) is awesome. Nobody covers ground faster than my melanarus... he's on speed in this tank!

Are you running filter socks? I was thinking of adding them, but I'm kinda lazy and the need to be changed frequently.
