    A 55, dowtish LOL.

    I just started a new pics folder for it under my Fish Tank folder, I've had a 3, a 10, a 38, a 55, and now a 140.

    You are definitely addicted!:cheesy: Can't wait to see this setup. That tank is really tall, you are going to have fun scaping that.

    Salty, we figured it would be a while too, just couldn't pass up the deal.

    dowtish, it's all him (my story, and I'm sticking to it) LMAO. This 55 was his first salt tank ever. 6 months in & he bought a 140!!!

    Yeah, scaping this is going to be probably a challenge for me. I've never had 2 feet of width to work with before...not sure if I know how to NOT do wall-o-rock!!! Standing on a chair will be quite common for me while scaping this one, too!

    Well, I definitely won't be putting a pistol shrimp in the 140, I'd have to get a really loooong feeder to get food to the bottom for it!
