Nice set up, it does flow real well with the rest of the house.

Sweet, congrats!

Thanks for all the compliments everyone, it's been so much fun putting this together!(drinking) As for how it got filled so quickly, my 72 gal was over filled with stuff and I am so hooked that I have a hard time not buying nice corals. (laugh)

Well I have been oh so busy with the tank. Had a few problems with some pests zoa eating nudies, which through lots of FW dips and looking for eggs I seem to have won the fight. But was not so lucky with a real nice montipora that I lost to monti eating nudies. I had been dipping all corals when I would first bring them home but still had problems. I have learned the importance of QT know for sure, but who knows I could have had hitch hikers on my live rock. Well any way here are a few shots of the progress..

Nice, off to a great start!

Sale pending, if i falls through I will let you guys know. Thanks for the interest,

Wow! Super nice tank, love all the color.

I have two Koralia #4 power heads by Hydor. They were $59.95 each on line and only running since November. (I have the invoice.)Both for $60 or maybe trade. Great power heads real nice wide flow.. Only reason I am selling these is because I just upgraded to the Ecotech marine vortech's.

Great! Thanks for the info.

I just got the Ac 3 with the DC-8 and getting it set up. they are a lot moe simple to program from your computer ( do not have to scroll through everything. Worth every penny!

Is this a friend or foe? (scratch) Here is a picture of the top and bottom, it's about a 1/4" in size Thanks in advance,

Wow 30 is a smokin' deal! Those sell for twice that most of the time..

Looks great! You gotta love having an equipment room instead of trying to fit everything under the tank.

Love The shed Aquarium, It took all day to look at everything.

Nice Start for sure! You will love that oceans Motion 4-way.

I'm in Portland and I got some cool stuff I would trade. I have some cool purple rim yellow middle zoas. Some cool mushies or leathers. I really like those zoas you have.

Thanks for posting this info!

Welcome to the site toad fish! Sounds like a nice set up, can't wait to see some pictures.

I want the WW zoas, the four RPE and the no names if available. I'm in Portland. Thanks, Stephan

Nice fish, I really like the potters angel.

(rock2)A big thanks goes out to Woody and Isaak at Seahorse aquarium for the pluming work on my stand, a great price on my 180g all glass tank, and delivery of the tank (Down stairs in the basement!) and help hooking up the bulk heads and getting it running for me.

Well I got my new tank hooked up and fixed a few drips in the pluming. So far I have put 160 pounds of aragonite sand and 35 pounds of LR. On the lookout for more big rock pieces.

Just getting the stand ready for the tank. I have a Blue line 70 pump that will be running all the water for everything. So far I have a calcium reactor and an octopus skimmer running off of it and also the two 3/4" sea swirls for the returns and a 1hp chiller-heater. There are two return lines that run into one large filter sock which are in my sump that is 31"x18"x19" which is i think about 45-50g (scratch). This will also be the refugium with a compact fluorescent for macro alge growth. Any input is welcome, I'm sure I will have all kinds of questions about the calcium reactor getting it going. I have it all hooked up, just need tips on getting it up and running and keeping it as trouble free as possible. Thanks, Stephan

Very nice tank for sure! Thanks for sharing. Stephan

Well I have done alot to the tank since my last post. I fixed the support piece on the middle of the tank with glue and a piece of acrylic. Then my friend made me a great canopy for it and I just love the way it opens to work on the tank, lots of room to play! I added a 1/2 sea swirl to it and some korilla #2 ( should have gotten the #3). Upgraded my skimmer from a simple venturi skimmer to a needle wheel system. I have run out of room quickly since the tank had a lot of stuff in it when I got it. Any and all input welcome, thanks for taking the time to look! Stephan
