Well, I'm viewing it, but admittedly I don't have much to say about it. It looks nice and you clearly know what you're doing so carry on :-)

Also, white stand rock!

Lol. Thanks kien. It may get more interesting if I decide to put a couple plants in. But we'll see. For now it keeps me sane while I go to school so what ever works

I can appreciate that! I had several freshie tanks that helped to keep me same during school too. I have to say, it is quite remarkable what you can get in terms of fresh water fish these days. Even guppies are surprisingly colourful. My son has a couple of "flame tail" guppies that are almost as colourful as my Hawaiian flame wrasse. Also, if I could, I would put a crap load of rummy nose tetras in my reef! We also have tonnes of colourful shrimp in our little fluval freshwater tank.

If you get fresh water plants stay away from the surface mat plants those basturds grow very very fast and can take over your tank in no time flat

I also like the look of the "Wood" if you decide to get catfish I would make a cave for them but face it so you can see them nothing worse than not know if they are alive or not

Keep it up

ok so heres a few pictures.
My LEDs came in but they are the wrong colors. oh well we'll see if we can fix the this or not but I may just add a blue strip in instead.

anyway, 2 - 12k panorama pros is all it takes to light this puppy, no big light bills for me! Jelly?

I wanted to ditch the canopy I had built but needed something to mount the lights in so I whipped this up at work in literally 40 minutes so excuse any design flaws :P

K so heres some pics

mocked up with wood strips to mount to vs. having to weld a bracket in with tapped holes.

Painted lights are in


a few different angels now





oops forgot to add. my view from the couch

Thank you eventually I will be refinishing the stand and the "skin" I made is just temporary and I will be doing it to match the light.
