Question...
So knowing that sea water varies around the world... are you actually sure that it is suitable for tropical species of fish? Our ocean water seems very different from say... Australia/Hawaii... so just curious. I have never heard of this in Canada... only in warmer climates. Pics yet?

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

theres quite a few on this side doing it by this side i mean atlantic ocean, from what i gather salinity is a little low as my water was only at 1.020 and alot of stuff may need to be dosed but ill soon know enough, so far ive only tested for phosphates and amonia .i have some rock curing now in a bucket and ill actually do a full on test here soon but i figure ill have to add a little bit of everything....salt here is very expensive and the savings of not buying it is worth it to dose for the sake of 5-10g a week  im going to have to use the small skimmer i have now(just a crappy wei-pro to skim my sea water before i use it in my tank....probably gonna use prime as well......good idea anyone?? for the first while ill be testing all new water constantly for everything untill i can get an idea of what is real low or high

Awesome news Denny! To bad for the airline for cracking your glass especially how well you packaged it. I guess it could have been worse though
 Good luck with the sea water, can you just order salt for cheaper? Set up some sort of group buy maybe...

unfortunately it was me who broke the glass lol never really broke right across just a little bit off the corner but when i put it all together theres a good inch missing from the corner so i didnt want to take any chances and made anotherplus it would have looked like crap lol  im sure i could order salt for cheaper as alot of the stuff i buy will be online anyways but im doing it as my own little project as well ill make the decision as the first corals are going in whether or not i stay with it or notas far as fish go as you all know....not much of a fish fan lol so im not sure yet what ill add prob just a clown or two and some shrimp
