Join in on my 450G adventure
Well I'm about to take the plunge on a monster tank! Please offer any feedback you have. I'll be checking both here and the RC thread frequently.
I'll probably need about 20 of you all to help me move this thing when I eventually do get it here!

I know who is helping me design my new tank when I move in the next 6 months to a year.
Let me know if you need any help and look forward to hearing updates.

Hmm..give me a call...I live in Larryville. Mainly because Lisa just got two 125s and a 75 gallon and the plan is the have all three plumbed together. (Perhaps just the 75 gal and my 125 gal and the other 125 and a 65 gal plumbed together...not sure yet)
However the first and most important is that I hired an electrician to make kill switches for the basement rooms and a seperate breaker panel with some kind of different amperage breakers for the main tanks.

WHAT is Savko?
YOu ordered plumbing parts from them?
I need a few of those bulkhead strainers, those are SWEET.
I was also wonder, I see on one of your Pumps you have some connector looking things. DO this attach and de-attach freely? I am looking for somehting like that, which will be leak proof and reliable. Any info on these?

I think I need a bulkhead strainer on my sump return and skimmer feed pump.
Those lumenmax reflectors are amazing. I've been lookin at the lumenarcs for awhile...not sure if they'll fit properly in my hood, but I'd love to make a pendant with them. Are you suspending them above the tank or placing them in a hood?
Santa was pretty good to you this year, huh? I'm officially jealous!

Mail order plumbing supplies (spa-flex, bulkheads, valves, unions, clear PVC, slip and threaded fittings, John Guest fittings, etc). Orders ship the same day from Ohio so it only takes a few days to arrive. Great people to do business with!

Quick question - where did you get the rubbermaid troughs?
Thanks,

I got mine from McMaster but you can get them at Tractor Supply cheaper and you don't have to order it and drive all the way across Atlanta to pick it up (there is one in Winder). Check out http://www.mytscstore.com/default.asp
