Any day I don't have to strap 45lbs of equipment on and a vest that makes me sweat when it's below freezing, is a vacation
I'm hoping on focusing on the tank maybe thursday or friday, we'll see what happens. A lot is in a holding pattern until the tank gets here.

Oh, ya,.. well that makes sence.
Good luck with your tank later this week then!
Do you know what the hole pattern and sizes for the tank and everything is?

I always plan outdoor work for when it is more pleasant outside if I can. The longest hardest jobs are always the ones I can't put off though. Yesterdays antenna that had to be taken down was 30 feet up and the antenna was 19' long. I replaced it with a 42" antenna this morning.

Pretty simple actually. Dual 1" drains in the overflow (I wanted to keep the overflow small, so I didn't go 1.5 on the drains), 1 1.5" CL drain 10" up, toward the center back, and 2 1.5" returns cetered on the back between theoverflow and sides. The closed loop will be ran with a dart, and the returns for the closed loop will be hidden within the rock structure. The sump will return to 2 1" OM omniflex nozzles on either side of the back. Then for now I'm going to run the 2 korilla 4s I have. The plan is to save pennies and grab 2 or 4 vortecs w/ battery back up and the wiresless controller when ever they come out.
I'm still not sure if I'm going to do a softie/lps mixed tank with a nice anemone and clowns (I've never had clows as I thought they were to nemoish), or plan for an intense SPS system???

19 foot long antenna 30 feet up on a hot day? That is not cool.
