That blenny looks like he is ready for the arrival.. You should all be so proactive..

It is nice to see you throwing up photos of something other than Your hardware and chaeto balls. Looks good.

I like how your new setup maintained a very modern look seeing as your old tank also had that modern vibe to it as well. Instead of swapping a plywood veneer for the glass pane, you should see if you can find some nice tile to inlay in the space. There are tons of stone mosiacs or small individual tiles that would closely match the stand. Great macro shots btw!

Oh, I agree with the tiles. It would look great with your set-up Brett, and as you say keep a little of the old build alive.

It's pretty rare to get more for less but I'm in a pretty good mood right now!

I had a tiny bit of cyano in a spot in the front of the tank so tonight I took a deep breath and did the 6025 basic mod. WOW!!! The extra flow is unreal and I'm seeing detritus flying out of all sorts of nooks and crannies. The mod is old news but I thought I'd bring it up in case any 6025 users want 1100 gph instead of 700 gph.

I don't think I'll do any of the other mods for wider flow etc due to the prop reverse issues and the work needed to correct them for those mods. This is great and took me literally 3 min with a coping saw blade.

Search RC for "6025 mod" if you want to see how it's done I forgot to take pics.
