Thanks Colin, your welcome anytime.

Still looks so empty to me but getting the fish moved in soon will be better. Need to talk the wife into letting me do a big SPS order from Reef Wholesale soon to help fill it up. Would like to get a few Acro colonies as well as some milli's & digi's.

Got the back and the top of the canopy part on tonight, just have to do the front and the top & back of the very top of the stand, a few filler piece's and then move onto getting the 60 gal in place.

The setup looks great. I know when the corals grow it'll look spectacular. Good luck with that "patience" thing everyone keeps talking about with reefing.

Wish I had the space, time, energy & $$ to upgrade mine to a 300g display but that's just not in the works.

Looking forward for updates in the future.

Anthony

Thanks Wayne, I added a 3 way switch so that I could use the same power supply & control for the light rack & access door.

Finally got the 60 gal cube all fixed up & into the house. Got it all plumbed except for the last 6' of 1 1/2" drain. Searched every where in Red Deer today to find one length but no joy. Will have to hit the plumbing wholesellers tomorrow.
