Unlike quite a few people around here your bird of many colors has many colors. I'm jealous as hell that it such a bangin' piece. Tank's off to a great start.

Little hardcore with the Zalman huh? love it.

zeah but it looks pretty cool and really wasnt that much when compared to a chiller..... between the zalman and its fans (under $200) and a 6" over the sump my heater runs on a hot day as the tank is well cooled.

Thanks man... i also have 4 small frags of that bird as i dropped it when moving to into this tank...

Looks good. My first tank was a 70g FOWLR... yours looks way better.

So lately i have been thinking that my 3 hawaiin flame wrasse 1M 2F) dont fit the pans for my new tank..... thinking i would rather go with more smaller fish....mostley because i think the male would like a longer leash (bigger tank)....if you dont have more than 150 Gallons dont bother asking........
i am not going to post a price but will take offers.... i have a number i am looking for (cheaper than some websites retail) and if this number doesnt come to me than i will hang onto them...

pains me to see them go but i think jack, terri and chrissy could use a bigger place...

Please dont respond here if interested just shoot me a pm..

Next time you do a skimmer cleaning take apart the pump and check the magnet on the impeller. Sedra's are one of the kind where the heat of constant use causes them to swell up and eventually they lose their shape from being a perfect cylinder to something that bulges out a little making it a tiny bit egg shaped. If you notice any deformities you'll have your answer. Luckily they do sell replacement impellers. I noticed I got about 18 months out of an impeller when I had Sedra pumps in use.
