Looking great what model skimz is that?

And you'd better be krylon-colouring those bright white threaded inserts

The skimmer is Skimz - SM201.

I had another look today, those things are very bright white! Will they turn all green and nasty? or just to match the blacked out awsomeness?

I totally agree with you!!!

Matching would be awsome, I was worried about leaching chemicals into the water.

Thanks!

As for "fish" stocking list, I'll most likely just pickup whatever seems cool at the store's plus what I have now. For corals, I have no clue... I'll likely ask for some advice and help in this area.

I am in like flin, can't wait to see the LED lighting. Took a quick look at the site you got yours from, very interesting to say the least.

waynemah · #38 07-28-2011, 05:59 PM

Hah!

Okay okay!

I currently have: Red Sea Sailfin, Anthias (not sure what type), File fish, Algae blenny, tribal blenny, six line wrasse, ruby headed wrasse, Yelow-blue damsel, couple of standard clown fish.

Wanted: Yellow tang, kole tang, masked rabbitfish, regal tang, powder blue, any wrasse I can get my hands on (love these things), more anthias to school with my lonely one.... Pondering the idea of having a couple of trigger fish and angels in there.

I'm not planning to get all of the above fish, but will pick and choose depending on what my system will allow. Anyone know of a good way or rule of thumb for this?

The LED's shipped this week (they used UPS instead), it should be here Monday. Duties and taxes were already charged to my card ($159 on a $1500-ish order). Overally pretty good. I'm planning on sending the heat sinks away to get annodized black ($60 for all 4)

I cant wait to get going on that build, should be pretty fun.

Do what you feel comfortable with and wait for a few people to start bitching. Then re-evaluate your choice accordingly LOL.
