reef165 Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 To many bunns in the oven, finish the 30b and then see what ya want to do with the tank. I've tried doing the duel setup on a budget and it doesn't work, concentrate on one and get it done then start the other. If ya don't you will cut corners trying to get them both done and in the end you will spend more $ doing them right. Experience has taught me that.

reef165 Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I have always thought it would be kinda cool to set up another tank of the same size next to the display as a fuge and display it as part of the display too. With some livestock and all the pod's swimming around I find it kinda interesting to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
