Oh wait we're looking at the 165 still. I get confused easily.

Don't worry Brett it's easy to get confused when I type, some times I don't realize other people actually read my comments .

Hey we need a picture of the mango house....what was that again? Your system is very cool looking. Nice touch.

Still finalizing plans on it but I'm going to take my 150 mangroves and plant them in my brothers 150 mangrove tub, should make for one amazing filtration patch.

Those dims are excellent. Lots of depth and dry arm pits.

The days of polluting my tank with deodorant are almost over!! We debated on the dimensions for a while but in the end we both wanted to see a shallower deeper tank.
Can't wait to see the final product!!

That's funny because that's something I'm conscious of every time I'm forced to go into the tank. I always fear that.

That's 150 mangroves to the left of the 165 now? Or do you have others in a different spot?

Man 300 mangroves in that tub. Epic! How much substrate/sand/mud/etc. in there for that? Hope it doesn't have to be moved soon.

I have to agree. I definately want more depth and less hight if I ever do another tank.

The few inches on 2' really makes a difference IMO, it makes for great for top downs.

The beast has arrived!

Plan of attack:
-Tuesday- Electrician
-Wed- Plumbing
-Thursday- Fill & Salt Mix, plumb calcium reactor, install mangrove tank, install auto misters for mangroves.
-Friday- Transfer the established 110g to the main.
-Some time shortly after- Transfer my 165g to this tank.

Some photos:
This is the "mother is going to beat my arse face", good thing she doesn't get back from Jamaica until Saturday .

When I say "150" I should say "150 persay", I added 150 to start and those are the toughest one that out grew everything else.

Either we will be purchasing an additional tank to make into the mangrove house or I will be placing the tank directly inside of this.

Then we will add a few new pods and should be set .
