Smann Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Looks very nice, did any of the corals we traded grow out?. The piece of the green long polyup mushroom leather you gave me is about 4" now, I'm going to try cutting it. What is the finish on the stand its pretty cool, never seen that before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stylaster Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 excellent job, i always appreciate a nice nano tank... i think that size does qualify Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePremiumAquarium Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Very beautiful! Crazy how things start to fill in and start going nuts in such a short period of time. I love the nice grown out look of your tank and I think if you go with a bigger tank, you should keep this one running as it is. Its just too beautiful to tear down! Good stuff!

Smann Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hmmm.....(scratch) there was a Ryan Not "R-3" Ryan that I traded a few times....I think... but now I see "Aug 2008" it was before that.

Garrett Thanks Garrett! Unfortunately I wont have room for 2 tanks once I build my new one... I will probably start purchasing parts for my new tank very soon! Im planing a a rimless 40x24x21 (about 80 gallon) Starphire tank with an external overflow. Im going to use a steel tube stand with removable outside panels. Im going to go for the Elos look on the tank/stand. Garrett, I stopped by Tap today and bought 3 pieces of 4"x16" tube. I just got to get over to Julias dads to cut the flanges!

ThePremiumAquarium Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 That looks awesome! I love the rimless tanks and an Elos look is always killer! I looks like you have a very good idea of what you are wanting out of your tank and I have full confidence that it will turn out amazing. On a side not, I just got a bunch of chemicals in this week. They will be ready to go for when the reactors are ready(no rush, still a very empty/young system). I am pretty stoked to see your new build given what you have done so far with this one!

Ryan Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 I hope you have a lot of carbon, cause these reactors are going to be huge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCR Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 The tank looks great. The new one will be killer too. It's to bad that you can't keep both as this one is doing so well. Can't wait to see the next one all setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertareef Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Beautiful tank Ryan! That is looking awesome (clap) Too bad you won't be able to keep it intact when you finish your new one... shame to break it down when it is going so well. On the other hand, the tank you have planned looks like it will be really sweet as well and I am sure you will have it looking even more impressive in no time! Well... maybe a little time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
