I was up at Jacks place today and took some pics of his tank for him.

I got lots of room to host the pics so I thought I'd throw a few more up. :)

The underbelly of it all, plumbing from overflow to sump:

Haha, I gave him some of my green zoos. Thats all he has.

So I'm thinkin maybe when the weather gets warmer we could do a thermos zoo trade?

Can we all drink the water out of the zoo thermos :wink: and then maybe feed it to our dogs?

I don't have a dog but i could feed it to my cat! She wakes me up at 4am every morning. Good thing she is cute or she'd be out the door :P

Kari here has some dogs that could take care of that cat problem for you... they wanted to take care of me, I think. :shock:

Niiiiiice kitty... but hey, it's a cat! Maybe immune to zoos?

Yes, I do believe cats have been eating zoos for millenia and have evolved to be resistant to palytoxin ;)

Nice work on that tank Jack :) Christy is quite the picture taker....I do believe I will hand over my camera again on the Vic tour. :wink:

I looked really hard at that picture and I couldn't see a cat...just a furry elephant trunk??? :?

Wow, thanks Christy. This is so cool, thanks for the compliments guys. It's my first time posting tank pics on the board here. Nice pics Christy.

This is my new 120 gal tank. This tank has been setup since late January so yah I was a little exctied about the coralline. Har har, thanks christy :P

Being a 3 sided tank the overflow took up 7" of one side so the tank is really only 41".

Thanks AJ, I made that hood myself. Big enough to put 400's in there, I'm using 2x250w Iwasaki's w/2x110 VHO IceCap 430 right now and I love it.

Talk to you guys later, thanks again Christy!
