Hey Dan, yes they do. Are your fish going to your cleaning station yet? I have 2 cleaning stations. I added two cleaners together a while back and they pair up on the left-side of the tank. I picked up another cleaner from a local reefer locally, and this one was not accepted by the other 2, so this one hangs out in the cave on the right-side of the tank. Works out great actually with 2 cleaning stations.

When's your ATB L arriving? I met up with Victor the other day, and he told me you ordered it. Can't wait to see pics of that badboy. Vic has a large in his shop, and it's HUGE!!!

Yes, the 2 shrimp set up a small station in the rear back of the tank. Luckily I can look through the right side to see. So far all the tangs have gone (while I've been watching) and the biggest turning-male lyretail anthias. It's pretty cool :)

I have the tracking info on the skimmer (2 boxes), but it hasn't updated yet. Hopefully no later than next Thursday. I'll be sure to post pictures!

That's insane! It even sounds like the ocean a little bit. :eek2: Makes we wanna drop my boat on top of it. ;)

Oh, Terry's videos are nice too. Really, Terry, they are. :rolleye1: :D
 
glassbox - thanks! :) and thanks for visiting my thread. Excuse all my kooky followers :p I'm very much LOOKING FORWARD to your build thread :)

have you come up with a design to hide the electrical cords in a tank yet? for the time being, I just twist-tied my cords to black suction cups.

4" below the brace.

Well, there's one definite advantage for acrylic over glass. I've seen a few tanks with a solid 2" wave, but I've never seen a 4" one.

Hey Terry, there's a shop near me that has four Achilles in now. :p

Build thread....about that. Started one, but the mods didnt care for the watermark so the thread was deleted. Dont think another one will be happening anytime soon :p If you go to our site and click "glassbox" under the categories, it has everything from the beginning.

Re: Cords: It may be a while until we get to them...I'm pretty overloaded at the moment but I will let you know once we try some stuff out. What thickness is your glass?
 
Tbone - Glad to hear, ours is 1/2" too. I'll keep you posted.

Paul - Yeah they cost a good amount, but so do must lighting systems with those options :p



Sorry for the mini T-Bone action ;)
 
Please no talk of metal halides on my thread. This is T5-territory! :D

Bart, my sailfin is a trip, yeah?? he keeps comin back for more.

Clown Tang update:

He got pretty beat up yesterday by the Sohal. His fins are pretty ripped up. No damage to his body though. Today, my Sohal has backed off, and my clown is out and about swimming and eating :rollface: It will only be a matter of time before his fins heal back up.

I think my sohal tests out new additions to make sure they know he's the BOSS.

glassbox - what are the dimensions of your tank? I assume it's going to be rimless? I have 1/2" glass cuz my tank is eurobraced. A.G.E normally does 3/4" on rimless tanks that are 24" tall.
 
Do dimmable T5's count? :p

it's 24x36x24...1in bottom pane 1/2" starphire all around. Water levels ~22"

Spoke with AGE before going with AO, but never heard back from them...should be plenty strong (types with crossed fingers)...
