Well I picked up this frag tank from Cidroy (Don) a few weeks ago and I actually talked my wife into letting me set it up in a spair bedroom we have (now referred to as the "frag room" - how cool is that!!)

Its almost operational. I just have to run the plumbing and get the aquacontroller for it and add water.

The tank measures 36" x 36" and is 15" high with a 2" drain. I added an overflow box to it which I still have to glue in. I figured I should add it if I want to keep the thing in the house. I will build a durso for it so its quiet or the MRS will bannish the thing to the garage.

I've got an old pfo balast and I also got the Lumenarc with a 250W Aquaconnect 14K bulb from Don as well.

Pardon the tilted picture:

I had the Precision Marine CA reactor from a previous tank and the ASM G3 skimmer. Another trip to Lowes and I think I should be set.

I'm hoping to expand on my zoanthid collection and have plenty of SPS in there as well. I just love growing corals. Cindy thinks I'm nuts :lol:

OH YEAH!!! I can't leave out our newest family member!!! DUH!! A couple weeks ago Cindy and I went to the Tampa Humane Society. I knew I would not leave without atleast 1 dog. So we found a 3yr old Golden Retriever mix (atleast thats what they said it was) He just gave me the sad eyes and thats all it took.

What a sweet dog. Doesn't even bark that much. Guess I'll have to get the Rotweiler too.

Later!

down boy...

Also, need some computer help. I posted the picture in my first post on this thread from my computer at work, and I could see the picture there. Now, I am home. I can see the pics that Chris posted but not the one that I posted. All I see is a red X in a box.
