I dunno it's cool and all but I'm starting to get a little tired of it...

No I actually am *trying* to mean it this time. When I get this thing wet I'll maybe get a little ticker in my sig to track it's age and start taking bets

There's no doubt you'll get it wet... all your tanks have... it's a question of whether a line ends up dashing through that 93...

BTW, I have NO idea where you are thinking of putting your MP10's.. It's baffling to say the least. /sarcasm.

after drilling and defacing the new tank i thought i'd better fill it with water to make sure it holds the stuff lol. filled it last night and then had to head out for a few hours which always seems to happen when i fill these things

woke up today and we're still full to the top and all my rock work is still solidly attached. my hoodie is actually still laying in the tank pinned to the bottom just in case there's a few that let go but it doesn't look like that's going to happen.

with water in the tank you simply cannot see the rocks at any angle you want to thanks to diffraction etc. so i'm not planning on filling the tiny little nooks and crannies i don't think and will instead try and work on the main rock tower this weekend.

So I just logged on tonight and saw a thread "93g for sale" I thought geeeeeeze, but then clicked it and saw it was a different tank. So, um.. yeah. Carry on...

I'm guessing you're still a bit chafed I let someone else drill my holes tony? It was a choice born of convenience bro please don't take it personally. I still have faith in you and your tool. Please can we move on?

Maybe she is wishing about now.... that it was hookers and blow.
And maybe show a bit more restraint.

it's not hookers and blow but here's my finished tower =) layout of the boulders on the ground may change but the primary structure is DONE. Hands are RAW from drilling and handling the rocks for so dang long.









and an awesome vertically shot phone video. ugly but it gives you a better idea...

looks awesome brett man , the way you have your structure made is going to allow the fish alot of swimming room , i went for a similiar style and notice the fish swim circles around it all day .....they wouldnt get that in a typical walled reef

kudos!!
