Thanks Canreef members for spending my money ha ha. Looks like we're going Mixed Reef after all. Ernie saw some pictures of some mixed reefs on here and RC and went "holy eff...I want that"

Live aquaria
 

When did they start shipping to canada? Thought you lived in Calgary

Nope. Live in New Jersey now..just too lazy to change it

So we figured out where the Nano will go. It's going to be viewable from front and back, makes things a little more difficult to start but in the long run will be a gorgeous tank. Have to build a small little support stand, as this will mainly be sitting on the front desk...once the build starts I'll post pictures so you'll get an idea.

Because of where it's going to be, I'm thinking two islands of live rock...lots of room for fish to move around. AND with the extra veiwing side I can cram more corals :D

OOOOOR...upload them from the black berry.

The tv will still stay on the bottom ledge.

These should be two new laws of the universe:

1. Purchasing any SPS leads to an SPS addiction.

2. You will eventually upgrade, end of story :lol:.

Looking good Randy, ever thought of purchasing a set of designer clowns? You can then smack people who refer to them as "Nemo's" and promptly correct them that they are actually genetically modified "Nemos". You can get them really easy down in the states and breeding them leads to some pretty interesting morphs.

Picassos start @ around $100.00 per fish up here and are probably much less down there.

don't know if I'll get "designer" clowns, but definately a pair will be in there. Probably one of the more personable fish species out there, and that'll be good for the shop....BUUUUUT New Jersey has a reefer's site and I just so happened to see people selling some fancy fish...oh lord.

soooooo, the thread needs to be moved. Guess who got a 75 gallon RR drilled for closed loop, and stand for $60....that'd be me.

The 20 gallon long will make a good sump. Tanks should be delivered to the shop sometime this week, take me a week or so to plumb it and then the ball shall be rolling!

Now that sounds better! You could try that swap/barter thing that kid did a few years back where he traded up from one red paper clip to a house. The gallonage creep doesn't have to end yet but preferably before you get things wet lol.

ha ha 75 is all I'm allowed. and being 48" allows for a small tang...

lots of NJ reefers are offering up great stuff for cheap and a tattoo...so that's the way I'm going! Now to find me some return pumps ha ha

SOOOOO got me a Mag 7 and a Mag 18. 7 for the sump, 18 for the Closed loop. That and the Vortech SHOULD be enough...me thinks
