You can check out his site here.

LOVE those!!! I've been collecting art for years and the concept is so Victorian-era etnobotany.

Thanks! I am trying to avoid having to go back and make major alterations down the road, so I am hoping a little planning goes a long long way. Steve has already had me make some alterations, warning me to do them now instead of when the tanks full of life. I started the same place everyone else did, a used main tank, repurposed tank for a sump, turbo floater skimmer, some cheap power heads, bla bla bla. I truly believe in you get what you pay for. Be it quality of the parts, ability, service, etc. so with this build I wanted reliability to be the number one aspect. I am away for a while at a time so I wanted to be able to keep an eye on things so a computer was a necessity.

I really hope I can nurture a unique tank, that takes cues from some of my favourite tanks such as Darryl and Dave's tanks. I really think the rock work sets the tone, so I will be spending a good amount of time on that Saturday.

Cheers and thanks for looking!

I am going to work on live rock on Saturday, wish me luck! Any suggestions are welcome. These aren't my pictures but are what I am using for inspiration. I won't have the emarco R400 I was hoping for. Too hard to get in Canada. So I will be doing what I can with putty and I may use threaded rods.
