    I'm in awe! All I can say is you are a plumbing and electrical genuis. A whole lot of work went into the setup but you will enjoy your reef tank for many years to come. Good luck.:cheesy:

    Thanks for the kind words. As for genuis... I'll just say that I read a lot-- Delbeek & Sprung v.3, 3reef, [STRIKE]ree*****ral[/STRIKE] those other guys.

    Free tickets for you =Jwin=, anytime you want to swing by just let me know. I'll have a list of yardwork ready for you. I don't have time to do it myself since I spend all my time on the tank.

    ;D LOL

    He has answered this question like ten times already.

    I think he's going to lay on a board that lays across the top of the tank and reach down with his arm with a 3 foot tong and barely be able to reach bottom...

    mix in some cussing, luck, and prayers and there you go ;)

    Invent a submersible cleaning robot, I think. Kind of like a roomba but with a magnavore attached.

    Now I play the waiting game. My levels were looking pretty good before I added the last 40 lbs of not totally dry rock last week and that got my ammonia level up again. It's no fun waiting but I figure that it will give me a better bacteria load in the long run. I'm also waiting on a few new toys. My calcium reactor should be here any day now and I ordered a controller on Wednesday (I'll definately need some advice from Jason on this)
    This weekends project is to finish hooking up an ATO.
