New Tank Build - 53" x 22" x 25" (~120G)

wow the pic you sent me yesterday doesnt show how big that skimmer really is, i think i still might try and fight one under my tank, good thing my stand is 36 inches high. so how do you like the lights, are you going to mount them on your current system to test.

The lights are pretty hardcore, and yes I'm going to put them on my current system tonight ;) Also, you could always get a smaller one NAC8, or even a NAC7, if you really want a giant skimmer ;)

Just added the new firmware to both my RKE and my AI's. OMG the AI firmware is AWESOME! it's got lightning, separate channel control (blue1, blue2, and white independently) and cloud cover, as well as 14 different ramp points through the day... oh, and the firmware upgrade was AMAZINGLY easy. The new controller arrived sometime this week, and C2 was great about support, I'm an idiot though and ended up snapping one of the plates, but they're sending me some free ones, wow!

The bits I ordered from BRS arrived :
* Carbon
* GFO
* Hole cutting kit
* Push connect bulkheads (pretty bad ***!!), going to use them for my dosing into my sump
* Random other stuff...

The big purchase I've just made is a pair of these :


They are so badddddd A** ooking...

When are you putting water in this tank? Good god, you have a build thread that's four pages long and your tank is still empty! :P Clowns look cool!

With your salary I thought you could outsource your job and/or life and still be rolling in it.

Jose is wondering why you haven't written a script to do your job Patrick...

I've been very tempted in going with those LED lights but I'm waiting to see them on your tank and see how they do with the par meter since my tank is 30" tall I may have to go with the regular 2 whites and 1 blue to get the additional PAR.

Unfortunately the scripting of my current job isn't possible... what I may try do is script ramsey's job, and then take his salary. The Royal Blue ones should have the same sort of power output that the white ones do... or at least close.

That was January... are you on vacation again?

So, I skipped San Antonio and have appeared in Denver. Been a whole long time but sold everything on my way out and now that I'm back in colorado and settled in I'm starting a tank up again. Likely won't be positing a build thread here but if anyone's interested I'll send along the thread in the other forum for my build. 110 acrylic tall here I come!
