"Gravity keeps both tanks level... "
That sounds like a bubble wating to happen.

keeping the tanks level isn't the hard part...the skimmer was. Now we have that fixed everything else is fine.

I just worry that something like this:
http://www.thereeftank.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=54297
may happen.
If it were me, I would think of it as a temp. solution and start figuring out how I would directly connect the tanks (below the water line).

I am glad things are working though!

sorry... I have to disagree... the best thing she ever did was get her son involved to help drive the Reefing FURY!!!


Now she has the little "devil" ummm I mean "angel" on her shoulder guiding her conscience into that next coral purchase

I know isn't it wonderful...we bonded! LOL we have always been close, but this has been one of the most rewarding things we have done together. It has been great having him to share the ups and yes downs of this great hobby. My daughter Shelby and Josh are animal lovers...before it is over our house will be wild kingdom AGAIN! We have had an array of facinating animals over hte years. My husband used to say he longed for the day when there wasn't a bird sitting in my lap at supper.....We had a beloved African Grey that we rescued and did die several years later...he died right after Josh's love bird, which died right after an old Chinchilla. The vet thinks the chinchilla died of age, the bird slept with the chinchilla (wierd huh) and then he died from grief, then the african died due to the years of neglect he had suffered combined with losing his "friends", so after that we decided no more. This tank was our first leap back in the wild kingdom! LOL.. Well I would like to finish this LOOONG story, by saying THANKS! to all of the people who have given advice, cutting, and support over the last months. What I and Josh have learned is this ...Don't set-up your tank until you find a wonderful reef club to support and cheer you on your journey. If not for this club I might have just said forget it.
