I am pulling the trigger on one of these this week. What size/type of return pump are you using? Did you go with the DSA stand or did you build your own?

Look up the thread in Elegant Reef's subforum, they have build details in there. I believe they built a steel stand for him.

Louis has the DSA stands which are very nice and one day I will have both as well. I believe it's the only way to keep any kind of warranty..

You're right Tony. DSA only offers warranty with tanks their tanks sitting on their stands.

Nice setup, has that flame picked at anything, I've been thinking of picking one up.

So far from what he's told me personally, he hasn't had any issues with nipping. But it's said they can develop the taste for it without notice.

I think it's 5 years with their stand, 7 if you register it.

My flame angel was a terror. To tank mates and coral.

bummer, well I hope it works out for him. There's alot of money in that tank to be turned in to fish poo.

Hopefully not you just have to keep an eye on them!! I had one in a previous tank for 5 yrs stocked full of SPS and softys never had a problem but I do feed A LOT twice a day!!!!

The first pic of the tube nem is sick!! Looks great!

[BBQHILLBILLY]

I am becoming a big fan of these Deep Sea Aquatics tanks. Looks really clean and no trim to look through. Looks great.

Keeping my fingers crossed that Louis gets one in tomorrow...
