oh and it says "edited by kien" feb 18 on the first post so you've been outed

Great thread, I was going to say "how did I miss this?" clearly it was because it didn't have SPECTACULARLY AWESOMEST in the title previously, and well because I've been a space cadet for the past year (yeah i'll admit it).

Anyways, congrats on the new tank, now get moving on it! I've just read a year of updates and like watching a tv series on DVD to the current season, I need to see the new stuff pronto!

ya , things are definitely looking up for me since the name change of the thread .. thanks Kien. !
I am moving as quick as i can . i will drain the tank of tap water tomorrow , and slide the stand into its final position, and begin making RO water.

We really tried this time around . but with a new tank , new year , had to pull out all the stops and give it go . We used FijiCrete to attach all the rocks together . The arch is actually two freestanding structures that meet in the middle . they are just zip tied at the meeting point just so they dont slide around.

So that being said . No mushrooms in this tank lol . No GSP , no zoos or palys or ricordia on the main rock work.. lesson learned .

Yes Ricereef , i know you told me long long ago ..haha

It worked well , thanks for the fast shipping .


Well , starting making RO water directly into the tank last night .. Good grief its slow lol . should be full by sunday night .


I changed the prefilter and carbon filter on the RO machine first. figured i would start fresh ,


Took a few pics of my current tank too. new phone camera so why not . Plus when i woke up this morning the tank looked really good .

side shot



todays plans are .

1. Get small black egg crate for overflow .
2. Secure plumbing to stand ,
3. make base platform to hold water change tank
4. Due a water change and tests on old tank ..

hmm busy day . i should get to it

looks awesome! I hate when you have to start filling it with ro. feels like eternity. worth it to start right.
