Mike, I know it's going to be bigger and better but I sort of miss the old tank a little bit.

Good luck with the new one. If you fly me up, I'll help in any way you need on it

Is it designed yet?

I hear Ya Spanky I miss it to. This is the first time in a long time I cant look over and see my babies, and I tell ya having to put a hack saw to them to get them off the rocks was painfull, then in bags then to another city. Ah well we'll make a nice new home for them when they get back

Chris I would love to have you out, man I could use someone to bounce stuff off up here. I have a design on the new tank, I thought I posted it but maybe not. I will start a new thread and let u have a look at it.


Mike

Wow ... made me tear up seeing you tear all of that down like that ... Can't wait to see the new L though, you will make that one even wilder than this one that you just put down to rest ...

How are the livestock in their new temporary home? Doing okay I hope.

Thanks for the pics.

Mojoreef,

You had me scared with that first picture it looked like a meth lab. When you said going, going, gone, that is not a good thing to say around unstable chemicals. Between that and your actinics on your new tank going at night the ATF is going to be bang your door down. Just joking. Good luck on the new tank can't wait to see the new pics when it is up. Remember you have to break some eggs to make an omelet or something like that.

Earl

I hope you have some money left over to buy your wife something really nice for christmas next year. Wow...what a mess!!

I'm confused as to where the L will actually be in relation to that room. Will part of it be sitting where the old tank was?

Wow! On a much, much smaller scale, that's what my living room looked like last night...Thanks for the pics! What kind of tubs are those tall ones with the "bulkheads" or whatever they were?

When will your new tank be ready for life?

Keep the pics coming!

I'm with you, Brooke. I don't understand how the tank works in the room.

Mike, I cannot wait to see the new behemoth in action. I so understand about having to take things down, even if it's to be held for you. I am turning my 120 into a FOWLR tank and just moving corals to the 180 I was sad to see no more corals in the 120. They will be back with you in no time.

I love the diagram of the new beast. Don't understand much but it looks good to me.
