    My dad knows a carpenter he hires to make our cabinets and our desks but I don't know if it's the same guy. I think that guy is near HWY 35 going down Saunders... I THINK it's near by Sam's Liquor Store.

    But good to know... I'm thinking about getting a bigger tank. You've motivated me. lol Until I get my own place though. Hopefully by then I'll be able to put things together without a problem. By that I mean all the tubing.
    well i went through a company to have my stand made (didn't want to have any problems with anyone). I chose the design, and color of the stand, i took them a picture for them to customize it and they were suppose to have made it the same but they lacked some stuff in the design, but over all i was very happy with the end results, you can't really appreciate the job, material and cuts that were made through pictures... Well as far as the tubing i pretty much learned how to do it myself,it took me a long time but that is how you will learn, cuting here and there, then no too long/short and making several trips to home depot/Lowes. after you know exactly how your water is going to flow and what equipment you will be using then it should be better to figure it out.

    well yeah everyone pretty much change their tanks more than once, they either upgrade or downgrade. as for me i upgraded, but still plan on maybe upgrading even to a bigger tank later in the future... well since there aren't too many of use "reefers" here locally in Laredo, you can always count on me for any help. if not here in maast there are alot of nice, talented and knowledgable people that are always willing to help. just ask many questions and you will learn by asking. everyday there is something new that comes up.
