    for what i paid for the stand it better be lol. I decided that if we were doing a tank this big that I should go ahead and get the hard wood stand instead of the el cheapo pine that you typically see. I'm extremely glad I did. both ends of the stand slide off as well allowing you access that...

    new tank time but will it hold

    well I ordered the tank last night. should be here tomorrow and then I have to get it home. My poor 75 gpd RO is working overtime right now. Good thing I replace the membranes recently. I also picked up some 2x4 and 2x6s for bracing. Ill take the better safe than sorry approach lol.

    Tossing around a 20H peninsula style tank

    Anyone seen the peninsula idea done in a nano style? Always liked the style and the wife is in love with the idea of a puffer. A puffer in my reef = . So Ive been toying with the idea of setting up a 20 high using the spare 150 pendant on it and doing a pair of odd ball clowns( picasso...
