Shag-a-delic baby!! Love the carpet.

How long have you had the Achilles?

(I almost want one myself, but am scared to try.)

Where on earth did you get that crazy U-shaped piece of rock you have those zoas nestled in? Never seen rock like that before.

Very nice! I remember when you were just talking about putting a tank there. Love these fast build threads. Instant gratification for the win!! If only those other large builds showed this kind of progress. Ya you know who you are

I don't want excuses, I want results!

By the way Sean, I noticed that there were 4 pipes leading in (or out) of the overflow. Sorry if I missed this somewhere in the thread, but was curious what they were. I can see that two of them are herbie overflows (one main and one emergency), but can't tell what the two middle ones are?

Nice Tear drop you have in their. Maybe I will come with Jtaylor420 and have a few beers this weekend so I can check it out.

Of the four pipes one is completely shut off with a ball valve. The second is partially shut off with another ball valve then with the third one I have a gate valve to tweak the herbie. Then of course the fourth is an emergency drain.

I already sold it.

I started this thread a while back and figure its time to update things. The biggest disappointment was the achilles not making it. The others tangs stressed him out too much and he never had a chance to settle in. A couple months ago I added a purple tang my cousin wanted me to have when he shut down his tank. He get along just fine with everyone, wish I could have said the same about the achilles. Other recent additions include a tailspot blenny, long nose hawk as well as numerous corals. Here are a couple pictures of some new toys as well as some decent livestock pics.

Looking forward to this frag growing out.

Hmmm, make you a deal: Take back the YTOOL problem fixing and I'll release more progress pictures in my build thread. Geez, don't you work for a living?? What ridiculous company do you work for that lets you slack off so much? Get a job you bum.
