    Awe that sucks. I wish you guys would have told me, I'd have flown out for the event and RN would have given some deals on product for the grand opening :)

    What LEDs do you end up going with?

    We got water in the first 2 coral tanks last night, should have water in the last 2 today.....Still have a lot to get done before next weekend but I think for the most part it should be complete for the opening. Unfortunately the coral tanks will not be cycled yet. they have some crazy plumbing on them. they have a coast to coast overflow with a bean animal. the returns are drilled underneath the overflow in 3 places. there will be a false floor so the water will flow under the corals then hit the opposite wall and come back over the top into the coast to coast. this should make for easy viewing of corals from the top as there shouldn't be any turbulence at the surface.

    Hey Gresham,
    We are going to have another grand opening day in the spring. That is when we would like to have you and other suppliers at the store. We figure it would be better that way and we can be more prepared.

    We went with the reefbrite LED's .....They are sweet!
    We are also getting in a bunch of nano tuners stuff this week.

    Nano tuners or Nano Customs (Chris)?

    I caught he Reef Brite on another thread, good choice :)

    Very happy to hear the grand opening event will be at another date :) I know Joy is busy right now and there is no way I could do a May 1st event :) Just let me know and I'll rally up the troops :)
