mantis cube buildoff

[hurley]

so ive started to create a 10X10X10 starfire cube for a mantis, drilling 2 holes in the bottom and using a XP1 canister for flow and to hold equiptment needed. lighting is the hardest part, but for now i used a desklamp with a 20watt 50/50 bulb, im hoping to upgrade to a viper 70 watt hallide light so i can house some SPS corals, but for now this will do

I saw one at Ocean Aquatics yesterday...looked about 3" long. Give Wendell a shout as I'm sure he'd ship it out no problems.
