Hey Ron where do plan on buying your 2' cube from? Who makes them in glass? Later Ryan

Looks good Keith. My only thing is that you sais you thought about making the classifieds and the gallery "members only". I think it should be for everyone. Just a thought. I would like to see everyones pics and all the stuff people have for sale. Later Ryan

Way to go Keith. Looks good. LAter Ryan

Okay im all setup, somewhat! LOL! I need to add rock and aquascape but that can wait. Heres some pics. Heres a full length pic of the tank and stand. Heres a pic of just the tank. Heres my Precision Marine HOT-1 Skimmer. Im still waiting for the microbubbles to slow down. PM says it could take a day or two. I just hooked up and already getting a little ittie bitty bit of gunk. Dont make fun of the wiring on the canopy. Its just temporary.

Did you guys see this thread. Really nice job. Magnets are a sweet addition. http://www.reeffrontiers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14607 Later Ryan

Thats the truth Randy! Thanks for the compliments. Anyway down to business. Im finally ready to update this thread. Got all the pieces I need to get it going. So the last coat of poly is drying as we speak. So that means im ready to start putting water in the tank tomorrow. I want a minimal cycle or none at all so Im thinking of just pulling some water out of my 75 + 30G sump kinda like a water change. Anyone done this before? I figure all I need is like 10-15 gallons and then I will just add 5 gallons of new saltwater to the mix. Sound good? It would be just like transferring to another right? Im just trying to get some ideas of the best way to do this. Any opinions would be appreciated. Ill post some pics tomorrow when it is up and running. Later Ryan

Holy Snikes!!!! That sounds pretty sweet. I betcha is got a nice big price tag. LAter Ryan

No no no. Its SO CO and Power Sobe. MMMMMMMM......

BABY BABY BABY!! WOOHOOOOO! Give me some sugar! Later Ryan

Hey Stacey the "jalepeno" beer you are talking about is called the Oregun Trader Green Chili Beer. Yeah a little much to drink in quantities, even though I know some people that drink it by the pitcher. The real good beers at the Trader are the Russian Imperial Oatmeal Stout, Nutty Brown and Highlander Red Scotch Ale. Later Ryan

What is everyone's ideal tank temperature? I try to keep mine around 80 but wondered if it would be better to lower it a bit. Just looking for some input on what everyone else keeps there's at. Later Ryan

Wow very very impressive cabinet!!! Nice job. Man you know what you are doing! Later Ryan

Well went by Upscales just to look but ended up buying. LOL. Heres some pics 15 mins after getting them in. Heres a blue tipped milli? Heres a closeup Heres the pink milli, not a very good pic. Heres the unknown yellow/green one Closeup Heres a closeup of my Red stag More to come!! Later Ryan

Was I suppose to bring someone stomatella snails? I remeber someone posting about it but dont remember who. Later Ryan

Nope looks like it sold. Thats RC for ya. Later Ryan

It doesnt look like i got it. I pmed the guy 12 minutes after he posted. I guess I wasnt quick enough. Later Ryan

The only reason I thought about it was that it was a really good deal. A couple hundred bucks off MSRP. Lets see if i get it though. Later Ryan

Keep up the good work Miles, keep us posted. Later Ryan
