    I'd hate to put thing in under a stand that I can't pull out. Have you though about using two sump (possibly connected to each other, instead of using a big 75.) Are you getting one center overflow, or two side overflow?
    I heard that you're going to sell your corals for cheap. Can me and Jaime come by on Saturday to clear it out for you? LOL

    Just curious, but wouldn't a harlequine tusk have a field day munching on your corals?

    Well, it should be ok if you have a big *** tank like what he's planning. Kind of like a cow eating grass on your ranch and mowing the grass at the same time. (JK)

    Seriously, if any of your currently well behaved, "Angel" fish turn bad, it would be hell tearing down a tank that big to catch it.

    Keep updates on how things are going with it. I'm wanting to do something similar and build it into a wall with lots of room to work behind the scenes. Couple of years down the road but starting the planning process out along with buying pieces a bit at a time that I'll need.

    You're going to be like Chris huh. I would save your money and buy it all at the same time. There might be better stuff coming out by the time you have everything ready.

    Brewer - the harlequin is a kind of wrasse, actually a very gentle fish for the msot part unless you are a shrimp or crab! He has left my emeralds and my CBS alone totally but my peppermints may have dissapeared - I moved most of the small shrimp to other tanks before putting him in.

    Vinh - I thought about that but I wanted to have the extra water volume , I guess I could do 2 smaller tanks.

    Mike,

    I thought that your 75gallon w/ the cube next to it was cool. When you get the new tank up and running I would love to check it out. If you do sell off any corals let me know.

    Thanks,

    That sounds good. I was given bad info at one time or another on one. I think they are a really cool looking wrasse and would like to get one once I get around to the larger tank myself. Put up pics once you get it up and going, it'd be great to take a look at.
