yea, im gonna try. but just too much money and i dont really have a lot of it right now, especially now that im in photography.
if it doesnt sell, im just going to tear it down and put it away for a while. if i set it up next summer, the stand will most likely support a nanocube 12 or 24. right now im focused on my main tank and photography and school.

no, you cant cure it in your display tank, since it leaches out stuff from the concrete and also makes your pH fluctuate. its pretty easy to cure it, just put it in a rubbermaid outside and put your rocks in and fill it up with water. everyday, dump the water out and fill it back up with hose water. do this for a couple of months 'till you become more confident then you can shorten the time up when you know its cured.
and i dont have any good shots of my display tank ATM. i'll post some pictures of it tomorrow when the lights come back on. its nothing special, but i think its getting there with some special attention. trying to let it grow out, but its kinda hard when you need your 1.5 year old MH bulb replaced, and you dont have cash. lol

thanks everyone. i dont have any fish in there right now, since i want to focus on the corals right now. i did have a foxface and niger trigger, but the niger killed the foxface, so i got rid of the niger as well. :(
nissan 577, thats a nice Z. my brother had a black one that was all stock, but he ran it into a tree. he got some nasty scars because of it too...

Stock it?!?
psshh, you thinks that far into the future these days?!? lol
yea, havent really thought about it. maybe just some damsels or chromies as they dont require much attention...

a chromis is a schooler... I wouldn't do one in a 10gallon. damsels are also aggressive and may attack other fish or possibly mess with cuc members.
