    Big changes coming my way. I am buying a home and will be moving in October. The tank will be upgraded at that time from my 85 bowfront to a 4x2x2 Oceanic Tec tank. I will also be going from 6 bulb T5 to a 48" Giesmann Spectra w/2 400W SE Radiums with 4 54w T5's(ATI Blue+ and Purple+). I am also planning on adding a 56 gallon(3x2x15) frag tank to the main system....

    I'm super excited and a little freaked out at the same time.

    Thanks!

    It can happen a lot faster than you think once you think you are ready. I had coffee with a realtor friend and then 2 weeks later I got a contract on a house.:eek:

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Beautiful stuff as always Chris.

    Congrats on the move, you need a bigger tank anyways.

    Love the Efflo, but who doesn't.

    Looking forward to your next set up, you definitely have a blue thumb for sure.
