The tank. courtesy of wayner



The stand set up



Anyways I ripped all the fuzzy stuff off the top of the stand, And found me a nice peice of ply. Sealed it with some kilz, and top coated with rustoleum.

Ill attach it probably tommorow, As the paint just finished drying today.




Currently contimplating adding a euro brace to the tank.

That's a great setup you've picked up!! Love the paint color, not usually a blue fan but I like your choice! Keep the pics coming!

the sump that was supposed to be used.



the sump that was purchased because of a concept garage sale. Might use the "Refuge" area for ato instead. Currently soaking in water in vinegar thanks to some sweet magical shop dust.



My favorite new tools after switching out 3 tanks in 2 weeks, Shop vac for that little bit of water u can never get out of the bottom of the tank, after syphoning. And easy moves..!!!!




and the boys eagerly awaiting their new digs. ( Missing from photo, Coral beauty, Blue spotted jawfish, and a lawnmower blenny ( who was not originally supposed to make the move, yet algae seems to be dissapearing so at least hes putting in work ) )
