    2 new projects are in the works!!

    As you know, I ordered a Warner Marine MFK251 skimmer. This thing should be a BEAST! It's rated for 500 gallons and should last me through me next upgrade!

    I also started a DIY LED project. I'm just not happy with the results from the t5/vho combo I pulled together. So I'm putting together a LED light bar

    I have always found projects like this much easier to set up and design than to maintain. If it still looks nearly this good after another year then I'll feel like I have done something!

    I think your tank is a better reflection of being a great hobbyist, it was your full spectrum light thread that set me off on my current lighting obsession. Mine is a better reflection of a budget right now lol.
