It was parted out before I moved.

Can't wait to see the finished product. Well from what I can tell in this hobby tanks are never "finished"

Nope they never are. The dream is always there, but this time its just with a smaller tank!

Sounds like you already have that "yankee" mentality...can't make up your mind! LOL, we miss ya here Mike. Sounds like it's gonna be a nice set-up.

Yeah it does rub off after a bit. Can't wait to start cooking rock all over again hahaha. Got some big SMALL plans for this one. Stay tuned over the summer

let us know how the tropicorium visit goes

This place is awesome. you def must go check it out, I have gotten some stuff from him in the past. The owner is **** Perrin, He iwas one of the firsts in the Industry to grow under a greenhouse setting for distribution although he does not have a full blown greenhouse.

OMG That place was awesome! I just got back from there and it blew me away. They do grow all of their live stock in a greenhouse setting. Basically they have (17) 20'x8'x3' containers lined up in a building where one of the walls is angled and allows sunlight in. They also have a regular greenhouse for plants and a big pound out back filled with turtles.

That place was ricordia heaven! By far the most rics I have ever seen before. At least two of those 20' containers filled with them! Plus they are dirt cheap. $10 for most. Along with rics they have lots of softies, zoas, and palys. Need a clown fish? Got almost every type I've seen too. Should be a good source for livestock I'll have to contemplate lining the bottom of the tank with rics

Err...changed my mind. Still planning on a new tank but I'm going a completely different route! I'll post a new thread in a bit

btw the end table still turned out nice...sans tank on it

Your just dangling that worm around on a fish hook, Michael. Give us the 411 on your new plans man.
