DOn't know how I missed this thread. By the end of the 1st page I really couldn't figure out how this was going to come together, then I started to understand half way down the second, then you posted a pic of the finished product and my mouth literally fell open. This is incredible. It's incredibly creative, incredible looking, incredibly well executed. Did you do all the woodwork yourself?

Really, this is awesome.

Did an amazing job. I see the Naso I dropped off is very happy in his new home.

It's mostly been said, but yow, fine looking work! I have a Yellow Tang that lost some finnage as well. He had some sort of strange disease for a while with some splotches & brownish tinge to the spines in the dorsal fin. The dorsal & one of the lower (pectoral?) fins lost a good bit of material which has also never fully grown back. This was a few years ago now. Thankfully whatever the affliction was, it went away on it's own. Good thing 'cause I had no idea what it was or what to do about it.

How about some more info on your LED set up? Looks like DIY, which is what I have as well, so keenly interested in details on yours. What kind of chips? Looks like you may be using similar dimmers to what I have.

Looks good ! Just put mine back together after fixing it from kid running into a cement barrier :lol:. Now looking for a lift kit and such for it. Where did you find the flares ? They look good with the bigger tires, usually people don't bother and then it just looks plan silly.
