No, It's supposed to tell people what I did. I really don't realize why everyone is overreacting about something so small. I didn't read the rules, and therefore I'm out of the contest...

I may be able to do that. Does it have to have that loop that goes off the tank to hold it in place, or do I just have to make a box?

Well, I have already offended two people on my price quotes...so...what are you looking into paying for everything, not including shipping?

Could you make me a HOB refuge? i will get dimensions later...how much are you charging? It will probably be around 10'' long, 4'' wide, and lets say about 12'' tall. Could you make two little chambers in the corners for pumps pushing water in and out? LMK

Well, I use weld on #3, or weld on #16, or usually just #3, and to waterproof things, add #16.

Why, yes, I could. Mind asking what you want to do with it? Marcoalgae, pods, denitrification, mangroves? Is it going to have a deep sand bed? What size tank will this be on?
