On another note, thanks for installing our hardwood flooring....it looks amazing........We are not completely back to normal but getting closer.

The tank is 24x24x12 (Josh's old cube) and will be lit by a single 250w MH(galaxy ballast, lumenmax elite reflector) or if the budget allows I may order in the 24" 8 bulb ATI, we'll see what happens......I will need to upgrade the return for the system.....Im currently running two in sump return pumps(one for the 110 and one for the "anti-pony" tank).....so Im thinking about drilling the sump and putting a "dart gold" with a manifold on the system....that would free up quite a bit of space in the sump and reduce heat transfer considerably......its all still a couple months away so plans may change






I have a bit of work to do on the tank......the patch covering the holes need to be removed (weeeeee I love scraping silicone) and the "Scary Movie" face that Josh made needs to be exorcised from the tank and a new overflow cut and installed......
