I agree with you Matt and I'm sure in Brian's tank there will be a lot of oogling as well as wishing we hads. lol

I just did a bunch of last time fragging before F&S. I fragged my purple acro and managed to get 4 nice frags out of it but, that isn't going to be on the sale block for the convention I don't think. That is unless I feel I'll be able to get a nice trade out of someone for one of them. (Maybe I'll bring 1 or 2 pieces to humour myself anyhow). Anyhow just waiting for the meeting and waiting even more for the coral swap... I've already got my pennies saved and figured on how much I get to spend this year at the swap. It's a pretty nice amt of cash hehe. Saving the money on the hotel is a biggie as that's around $100 extra I get to spend thus one or two more nice show pieces. I don't think I'm going to get salt this year as I still have 4 pails left from last years. Thus another $100 to use there. Sorry to take away from the topic just kinda rambling on as I'm excited about the next few upcoming weeks.

The front panel is going to be installed on Sunday, so I'll be posting pics (hopefully) on Monday.

Directions are now posted in the member's only area.

One other thing to note is that Olde Towne Pets will be closed this Sunday is if anyone wants anything (DT's, etc...) from there, you'll want to get it at a different time or have someone else pick it up for you ahead of time.

Well, everything isn't 100% complete yet (as anything ever really is), but the door is up and it will be complete by next weekend. Here's a couple pics.

Looking good Brian! I'm glad it's finally up, you are very patient
I like the two-tone wall colors you have going...it sets off the tank nicely.

We will have to talk if I can't make it to brians..... No use in us out bidding each other... FYI I don't have much room in my tank as you could see from the pics before...... But then again a person can always find room

The tank looks alot different than when you saw it last time Chris.

As for stealing corals out of my tank - good luck. Getting stuff in and out is a pain since it is set so high and being such a tall tank. But, it will be a good height once we build our bar area in front of the tank.
