well im happy to say the tank is moved... and it was not easy lol drained all the water into buckets leaving enough for the fish which all they did wise hide under a rock the whole trip. the stand had adhered itself to the carpet which made for heavy lifting and enoumous help and bravery from the wife sticking her fingers under the tank to seperate it from the carpet. so far the nly real casualty is my one timer bar got wet and fried so i have to figure out the rkl to use as a temp timer bar... and micro bubble galore atm. so my day is not over untill i get things smooth again but its moved im sore as hell and heading to the garage to work on the stand to bring in.

thanks move went well but i cant move im so sore must get rum tomorrow..friggin tank is heavy and its only the 90 lol. but it took 3 hours and its running again and no major gitches.

as for the programing .. all i needed was the lights since i fubared the powerbar i had. it was super easy. i may or may not be using the rkl as a light controller on teh 180 but mostlikely ill be ordering a second powerbar fro the apex....one controller to rule them all lol

near chistmas i will be building a frag tank/qt tnk. not that i really need a qt tank that often i dont buy alot of fish and will only be adding 2 more fish to this tank. give my current buddies more real estate. but dont wish to over crowd them with competing sleeping spots lol they are ****ed at me atm but will soon forgive when they get the final move over

Hehe, they're gonna feel lost when you move 'em

"Oh my God! What a fabulous room! Are all these your guitars?

"This place is bigger than our apartment!

"erm, Can I get a drink of water?

"You want some, huh?"

"Oh wow, look at this tub? Do you wanna take baaaath?"

"What are watching?"

"Hello?"

"Are you feeling okay?..."
