and AGAIN

i brought a 8foot tank a whike ago to replace my tank as it sprung a leak, i spent three days, moving livestock to another i had brought in ready so i did'nt cause stress to them all while adjusting and empty the tank and put the new one in situe.
i then loved the look of about 100kg of rock and my fish, i then met this site and saw what i am missing out on.
so i thought, while it is empty and being conditioned i can add more rock and make it a "reef" style, so spent another three days driving round finding nice pieces of live rock and arranging the new reef,

I then see picks on here again of tanks with sumps(mines sumpless) and all the "STUFF" hidden away and no ugly pumps and heads in the tank,

Now from the info on this AMAZIN site i am going all out and installing a sump to the set, had an amazing find!! brought a v2 1500 for 25pound around 35 dollar, so thats going in too, this is all new to me and i just hope this works

All i am writing for really is to say thanks for advancing me this far in only a short time!!

so if you hear a scream from across the pond you know the reason!!!

Welcome to 3reef vanpyre!

 

many thanks hope to be around for a while!!

 

No problem........I truly understand, I have 3 daughters of my own. I didnt think that she was wearing her birth-day suit... Luna

 

no worries matey, i had it in the garden on a hot day and she came out and wanted to spray the tank with the hose, so she got wet took her clothes of and she got in, so just left her to it, at least we can say we had our own pool!!!;D;D

 

Congrats on the new tank! Glad to see that the guys here have helped you out already! They're very knowledgeable and are pretty much the reason for me getting my $h#@ together in terms of my tank. Hope to see a lot of posts and pics comin from across the pond.
