Almost 11 foot long tank!

I just looked at the pics of your bikes Those are SWEET!! My dad just built a bobber from the frame up it is a LOT of work.
 
i am sure jeremy does have threads on here somewhere and i am sure as soon as he sees this he will post some links to them. and yeah the bikes are a lot of work, that is my other "job" when i am not tattooing i build and paint custom bikes for clients on a personal level, i do not mass produce parts or anything like that each bike is built individualy for each client and no 2 of my bikes are ever the same. i usualy spend 3 to 4 months on each one. considering i do all the design , all the fabrication, all the welding , all the tear down , all the paint work , all of the wiring, all of the assembly, the only 2 things i do not do is building the engines( which i only use the best ) and the chroming as i do not want the huge hassle of setting up the dip stations. so i am completely involved in every step, almost hurts my feelings everytime i gota hand one over to the client at the end. and beleive it or not i actualy build these for people at a very affordable rate
 
sorry for the delay on the new FTS i have been very busy with the tank at the new shop breaking and trying to replace it, also i have kept jeremy busy helping me out as well. we will get som more posted very soon. on another note the tank and all inhabitants are doing absolutely awesome. except for 1 coral unexplainably dieing for no reason whatsoever although it did not affect anything else, thank god, because with all the stuff going on at the new shop i dont think i could have done anything to help or stop the situation.
 
it was a med sized colony that i was never sure of the name of, the weird thing is that it was in the system for over a year
 
I've had that happen too. A coral that seems thrilled with it's location for a year, and within a couple of days, *poof*, it's gone. And everything else seems happy, nothing changed water wise, at least nothing that I can test for...

Obviously something changed. I actually suspect that two soft corals grew enough that they got close enough to each other so they started war and released toxins into the water, and some of it got on the coral that died. At least that is my theory.
 
well i finally had the chance to get back to work on my baby now that my new shop is open and running, unfortunately during the few months of killing myself working on the new shop and the new tank there this one got neglected a bit, and i did lose a couple of corals and a couple of fish, due to water perameters getting out of wack, but all is well now and the lost fish have been getting replaced along with a few new additions, of the biggest copperbands i have personally seen, a , powder brown tang, a kole tang and a gold spot rabbit fish
 
I notice in some of the latest pics, you've got some juicy aiptasia...planning on trying to get rid of them? Btw great looking tank! I always get jealous looking at these mega tanks cuz I'm too poor, but it gives me something to aspire to one day.
 
yes buddhakiss i am currently working on getting rid of the aptasia, along with adding the huge copperband i have been getting inthe tank and doing some kalkwasser injections. and dont be jealous of the tank just plan and save for a long time and you will have a "mega tank" as well, trust me mine didnt happen overnight i planned this tank for years and years

I am loveing how this thing has changed and progressed. It will be amazing to see how the corals grow and color up in a 11ft presentation like this!

GJ and keep the pics coming.
