Scott to be honest with you I don't think I have any pics of that tank posted. Origionally it was just going to be my temporary tank untill the other one was finished. But since my 55G freshwater tank leaked and I lost all my fish that were in it I decided to throw that tank on the stand and make it into a more permanent environment. Maybe I'll make a thread here in a little bit and post some pics of it. :)

That would be awesome, I just set up my QT last night and tonight am trying to get the SG to 1.025 Keeping my fingers crossed that I can. Then if I get the SG right tonight I will get a Shrimp and throw it in and then friday I think I am going to my Not so LFS and getting a couple pieces of Live Rock to throw in to help it Cycle..

Mine will be my Christmas present...not really happy about waiting, but they have delayed it so many times, what is a few more weeks....I'm considering getting the steering wheel.

GT5 (and a PS3
) will be my Christmas present as well. Skipped it on launch, the cool blue PS3/GT5 combo didn't make it stateside. Bought a tv and some other stuff for the gaming station.
Nice chair Corey! I have a AK Designs 100 rocker on the way. Pumped that my Momo Force wheel will work with GT5, one thing I can skip. Maybe save up for a Fantec wheel/pedal.

Thanks, I like the chair pretty good, it has 3 way adjustable arms that are nice to have sometimes. My PS3 was actually last years christmas present from my wife
. My old Logitech/Momo wheel gave out on me. The rumble no longer rumbles and the weel no longer rights itself like it's supposed to so it was time for a new one. I didn't realize they had made a GT5 bundle but it looks like it was only a 160Gig system anyways. Not that it matters much...you can pick up a 500 gig hard drive for like $60 at best buy for it. The blue was kind of cool though. I did notice that Game Stop was selling GT5 covers for the PS3 console. I don't think it was blue though.
I'd like to get my hands on one of those logitech G27 wheels but they're expensive. I don't know if I want to pay $300 for a wheel. Check out the pics on the link for what this guy did with his. http://www.autoblog.com/photos/racing-wheel-ottoman/#3640272

The thing with the G27's, is that they're so in demand, the used prices on ebay, are going for more then new prices from retailers. It's nuts. My Momo Force is going on 6 years now, and still is pretty decent. Def. not in the G25/7 range, but I like it much better then the current Force GT Logitech offers now as their mid-range wheel.
The ottoman is pretty cool. If you played like Grand Prix Legends or something a lot, would be sweet for that F1/Open wheel feeling. My setup will eventually be very similar to this. (skip to like 1:35).

That's my rocker, and I believe that's 42" tv. I'll have my tv wall-mounted just a little bit higher, will need to stuff a computer and speakers and Atari/NES
under it). They never made that wheel stand. Will be building my own.
