    Picking this up today, a drilled out 20 long and stand for around $70!  8)

    Leaning toward moving the inhabitants from my 6 gallon plant tank into it and make a wet/dry for it. Although if I can't find a 37 cube in black, I am tempted to move everything from my 20 hex reef into it.

    What do you think!

    Yeah, it's drilled out for the overflow. You can kinda see it in the pic.

    It's really nice. The guy did a really good job.

    I'm psyched!

    I see it now (On my Laptop) that would mak a nice reef. The hight of your hex would make a nice planted tank. What about switching ??? Just a thought.

    Will do! :)
    I'll be making a sump ASAP then order a couple things and get started.
    In the meantime, here's a pic of my tank from today. Got a bunch of new frags at a local frag swap. And a couple Gresham gave me recently. Good thing I bought another tank! ;D
