I have an Abyzz 400 pump, and I am wondering where you got the flexible couplings for your Abyzz pumps?

Peter is learning how to master the new Go Pro mini cam. I will take some pics when I get back to the Great White North. I'm way down South in Chicago for the holidays.

Sorry for the delay.... I have been very busy and also got a nasty cold so the effort to get you your Christmas update is a bit delayed....Hopefully in the next few days.

Tom can you PM me your Email/phone as Andy has asked me if I can get it for him.....I just had a great IPhone video call with Andy and his family. It was great to see and talk to him as well as get a personal tour of his tank.....WOW just WOW.

I've been playing a bit with the Hero2 and it got me thinking.... With the size of your tank, it would be feasible to build, modify or acquire a RC submarine or ROV and fit it with your Hero2. There are quite a few already available that might be able to be retrofitted. I found a fellow Canadian that does custom submarine with camera builds including replicas of the Nautilus. This one for instance looks large enough that the Hero2 could be mounted in the clear nosecone (although it might be a bit too bit large.) Imagine sailing your tank and interacting with the livestock with live HD streaming video from the Hero 2 (once the WiFi back is released.) I would think it would be an incredible experience for the pilot and observers!

Yay! I just got done reading all of your thread, which I started immediately after reading all of Ching's thread. I am a lurker, I've been reading threads here for a few months both these last two threads have made me really want to speak up and be more a part of the community. Thank you so much to both of you for the way you have handled your threads, they kept me coming back for more.
I posted this on his thread too but I feel like I am slowly earning my PhD in Reef Keeping from your threads. There is so much to absorb I feel like I need to reread both threads again! In any case, I want to thank you, Mr Wilson, Dave M, Brothers Grimm, and all the other helpers of your project. You all are very inspiring. I am going to be saving so I can upgrade this year to a 125g, which will be huge compared to my 29gal. I will be using this thread and your great example to help me along the way. Thanks again for sharing, I am very grateful to the whole community for having this information out there for a newbie like me. Alex |

Sorry guys, I haven't been posting much lately. It's great to see the thread lives on and is continuing to lift rocks to expose more lurkers to the naked light of day
Yes, pictures will follow in the next few days. The tank is really growing in well. We are getting to the point where we will cull out some of the less colourful corals. The bar keeps getting lifted, so what was once a premium coral is now background It's incredible how much a tank can mature in a year. It was last January when we added the first corals. I will do some searching through my pictures and try to do some before and after perspectives. |

Note, however, that he is in the process of replacing all the metal halides with Orphek LEDs. This process will be completed by Mr.Wilson in the very near future. Dave.M

over 5kW of power just in lighting! That's awesome!
Peter, Would you like me to set up a laser over there as well? I have extensive knowledge in this field. Are you not worried that you will not have the growth or integrity when full LED? Myself and many others who have totally switched away from T5 and/or MH have experienced major downfalls. I know that you have majority LED now but there are still MH present. Perhaps you can prove otherwise! Always a pleasure! Rob |
