We're gonna have to teach you to multi quote.

:facepalm::facepalm::facepalm: I'm so challenged. I will accommodate next time.

That stand looks like a beast. Taking it slow has a lot of advantages. There are things on my build I would change if I had a couple extra months Keep up the good work!

Really great to see some progress on this build!

Wayne - I am just catching up on your thread man. Please take it easy on that knee. You don't want to make your surgery worse than it has to be. Don't over do it. Good luck and no more pushing the stand around...LOL.

At this rate I will end up visiting you and finishing the tank for you.... /EVIL GRIN\

Wayne have you decide on pumps yet for flow?

You didn't miss anything. Well maybe you did. Yes it's just one tank, I didn't feel comfortable as I said in a earlier post so I believe this will be a better fit for me.

It's just me Dan. I rather go with power heads. I will be doing a gyre flow and alternate it every 10-15 minutes.

Not sure about this man! With gyre flow your taking advantage of the momentum the water has! By alternating at short intervals you don't benefit from this

So you are suggesting ???

Come on you can't mention who's building it?? I'm curious as to who you went with cause we all know I pulled my hair out trying to decide on a builder for my tank....

Wayne, great forward thinking! By the time this is set up and rocking you don't want to have to worry about that old tank messing up your sweet reef! :thumbsup:

What style of overflow will the new tank have? :dance:

Thats because I don't know who I am going to have build the tank. Heck I might even build the tank. That was my original intention at the beginning of this build.

Wayne, great forward thinking! By the time this is set up and rocking you don't want to have to worry about that old tank messing up your sweet reef! :thumbsup:

External overflow. I want to utilize as much space inside the tank as possible.

 

[aquaph8]

External is the way to go, I love mine. Its so nice not having a box inside the tank.
