I Cant Believe This.i Sold All My Tanks, Corals, Rocks, Everything Mainly Because We Need The Money But Alot Of Because My Husband Was So Upset That I Was Spending So Much Money On Them.well, Everything Is Sold And One Credit Card Is Paid Thank God, And Look What Hubby Surprises Me With Yesterday..holy Crap Huh? He Paid Only 300 For The Whole Thing!!.he Said He Felt Bad About Me Selling Everything And He Thought It Would Be Ok If I Had One Tank But Didn't Spend That Much On Corals And Fish.i Had Another Max That I Sold And He Knew How Much I Liked It.well, This One Is For Keeps..maybe You Guys Can Help Me Stock It?

I Had The Jbj 28 Gallon With Md Lights. It Is A Good Tank. But I Like The Look Of The Max Better. The Jbj Nano Is Decent Though. You Will Prolly Like It.

it is a nice set up. nothing to say really.i just like the max better because it is much wider and the jbj is much more deep than wide. but like i said you will like the jbj..the little skimmer worked great also...

Okay, thanks :)....yeah I have a 15g now, with no skimmer...and recently had a nitrate spike....I had to many corals in there...and with no skimmer thats asking for trouble...now I only have 1 false perc, a shrimpgoby, and 2 coral...nitrates are at 20, they were 80...I had to do water changes everyday for the past 3-4 days to bring them down, now when I transfer it over with all the new water it should be fine, but if the tanks not here tomorrow I'm going to do another 3g w/c

34 Gallon Red Sea Max are awesome tanks, Does yours have metal halides with it ? I think it comes stock with those lights right ? If only i had 1200 bucks for one i would get it but man i woulda went and got it for 300 in a second. Great deal. I know in about 3 months or less you will be selling this tank as well but hope to see some great pics from it before you do that. LOL. Get a couple more b/w clowns for sure. Yashia Goby and Randalli pistol shrimp would make a great addition as well. Hectors goby, great little sand sifters but not enough to make your tank dusty looking either. but they need to be in a well established tank like a mandarin. Goodluck with it.

How cool are you ?
that is my fav. tank of all time
Funny story , a friend just told me he missed out on a chance to get a 1yr old Sea Max for only 300.00 b/c his wife wanted to "sleep on it" poor guy
yep ,it was sold when he got back ot the guy
prob. not the same one , this one was from a Chicago berb.....unless your hubby had it shipped
wouldn't that be funny! well not for him
Great start!!! can't wait to see this come together
