    I've been surfing the site for a while...since I've started my first tank.
    This has been the most helpful link I've found on the net. :)
    I have a 65g with 70lbs of live rock and 70lbs of live sand, a coralife super skimmer, fluval 404 emptied with just some live rock and floss, 2 actinic and 2 10,000k with 4 night led's, a hydor koralia 3 and 4 powerheads, and a heater.
    I've had the tank up since Nov 8th. I originally had a small problem with some aiptasia...which was strange since the live rock came straight out of a show tank that had no aiptasia problems, but all is well now.
    I first set up a double bow 65g about 2 weeks before I set this one up...but it sprung a leak due to it being unlevel. I bought a new tank and transfered everything over to it.
    I have 8 green chromis, a yellow tang, 2 peppermint shrimp, 10 blue legged crabs, an astrea snail, and I just put in my first coral, a finger leather frag, which I've been having a problem getting to cling to a rock.
    I'd love to set up a sump but don't know how to set one up in the small space I have under the tank...my stand is split into 3 sections underneath.
    Anyways, that was way too much rambling.

    I have approx 21" X 18" times 3 cupboards under the tank.
    I'll get pics up as soon as I get a place to host them.
    By the way...I live close to Niagara Falls...in Canada.
    And thanx for your replies. :)
