What upgrading already, I can't speak, shame on you. while you are at it go 280 long is the key

just tell the hubby it has to be long its in the constitution of reef keeping.

looks great love the rock work.

hahaha...nope, not a guy.

280 long...ouch...too much work! lol We don't own the house...so moving that much would be scarey!

Hopefully I can remember how to stack the rocks back when I dismantle them all for the move!

Wow thats a great looking tank! I am a huge bow front fan!

Thanks, i'm a bowfront fan as well, unfortunately, I do need the upgrade...so i'll probably sell the bowfront after that.

It's so hard to get rid of tanks though!

Yeah I would like to upgrade to like a 120Gallon tank or maybe a bigger custom tank... Something like 4'W X 4'L X 2'H

Thought i'd post pics of the tank we made for the upgrade...

And I thought i'd put up a pic of one of my more comical tank inhabitants...a spotted hawkfish.

So I got bored today, and figured i'd go ahead and start on the transfer from the 72 to the 110...and I was just going to start with the sand!

So much for just the sand, once I started I figured I'd just go for the whole enchalada.

It doesn't show in the pic, but the stand was built using a model that was posted by Kien awhile ago, and it worked out quite well with 2x4s and of course as I mentioned before we built the tank. Though, we didn't take into consideration the thickness of the glass when we did the length, so my lights are 1/4" too short. Something to consider for the next tank. lol Are we ever happy???!! :P

Mmm.. Enchalada..

..Oh, um, i mean great job love the caves in the aquascape!

hahaha...trade you an enchalada for a coral?? LMAO

Love the rock work... still not sure how I am going to do mine... still got time to wait.

Thanks Greenmaster, it took awhile, especially when the water was so cloudy when I started placing the rock, but eventually they all bridged the way I liked it.
