My plan is to not introduce parasites. How's that for brilliant ;D. I suppose another way of putting it is that "an apple a day..." no wait, I...
For the deeply existential among you... "Wherever you go, there you are" I can't find the original source. I probably saw it on a bumper sticker...
Fish that won't play well with others ;D. My kids will inevitably want fish that aren't reef safe and this will give me any eay way to indulge them....
+1 on getting your cabinet guys to do your stand. Just make sure that they understand the critical importance of having it be true and square and...
I'm setting up a frag tank in a 30 breeder. What do ya'll recommned for lighting. I think the tank will be bare bottom and light shining through the...
In that case, hurry up and get the girl her kitchen. Just make sure that you have room for a 6-8' tank ;)
:yelrotflm:yelrotflm:yelrotflmI haven't been able to convince my kids of that yet. They've been playing Crash: Mind Over Mutants and Wii SPorts...
Hmmm, my initial thought was don't bother with a sump now but then I looked at your stocking list. That seems like a lot in a 37g and getting a sump...

FTS with my canopy in place… I should actually be able to leave it there from now on. [IMG] The tank is a bit clearer today and another 200 gal...
Here are the reflectors actually mounted over the tank. [IMG] [IMG] The next step is to get them wired to my ballasts. I’ve got a little...
So today’s project was to finally get the lights mounted. Like so much about this tank, it took a bit longer than I expected, though part of that was...
LOL, you wrote So and I read Son. Hence my reference to him. Your SO should know better but I understand the need for harmony in the home.

See if you can steer him towards a giant clam instead. (maybe with a scuba diver stuck in it)
I don’t think it will surprise anyone that a lot of planning went into getting the build this far but it still amazes me how some of the seemingly...
