aww yes i guess i haven't updated this in a bit

So in the past month i sold my lighting which was the 36" TEK which i was planning on running. I was in a bit of a buckle trying to figure out which light i was going to go with because after seeing the shimmer off jdigitals tank and foosers from the MH i really was debating about going this route. Than came the heat issue. So being upstairs i once again decided to go with T5HO and picked up a 48" TEK with legs from red coral. while i also picked up a deltec mc-500 skimmer for my sump.

Also in the past month I picked up my rock which is curing right now, 55 pounds if i remember correctly and i still need to pick up more for the sump which i am planning on running another 20-40 there.

Big thanks to kevin at red coral. its coming along and i am just working on the plumbing right now.

I will have to post some pictures tomorrow, my dad just got back from austrailia and i lent him my camera for dive pictures so maybe i can post a few of those. Sadly i wish i could have went on that trip

Thanks guys, ya i really wish i went on that trip. sadly my mom didn't allow him to dive to much that trip but he is already wanting to go back for a week of diving. first thing he did when he got back was tell me to get my padi lol

fooser- i don't bring much when i travel, could always stick ou in my bag lol

sphelps - ya when i orginally panned the tank it was suppost to be a rimless, i guess i should change that to eurobraced since i changed my mind in the ordering process

Kind of a silly club to have considering all tanks have a rim.. LOL whethers it a black manufactured one or the true rim of the glass.. every tank has rim..
