180g round two
 
Well after a long battle with Dinos for over 5 months, and losing approx 80% of my live goods I was almost ready to give up, finally I broke down the tank and put most of the rock in contanors to cook in the dark, the rest of my livestock ( whats left )transfered in to a 55g and a 70g, I fiqured to start over completely, so I purchaced a new aga dual overflow 180 6x2x2 and make a new stand and cap, what a good time to start a build thread, so off to the lumber store.http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/n...nkbuild003.jpg[IMG][IMG]http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/n...nkbuild010.jpg[/IMG][/IMG][IMG]http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/n...nkbuild014.jpg[/IMG]

one thing about Dinos is it the BEST cure for red bugs I have seen, guaranteed gone, 100%

Hopefully things work out for you this time around. The stand looks great, by the way. Good luck on your build!
PS: What's that new SW LFS in CR like? The Dragon's Lair (or something like that) I hear their ad on the radio all the time.

the dragons liar is trying hard, they just got a shipment of 40 boxs of carb sea base rock that has been on order for 6 months, there live stock really varies from time to time, nice people to deal with thou

I'll have to check them out some time. I don't get over to CR as much anymore though. I like the blue you picked for the back, looks good. I have a paler blue on my 90 which I like, but I think I like yours a little better. Is that tank 72x24x24. If so, do you mind if I ask what brand it is and where you got it from. I'm currently in the process of planning a 180 or 220 build.

yes its a 72x24x24 AGA ( all glass aquariums ) I got from J&l's
