I wish I could go! I have family in town.

Everyone's invited to drop by today between 2-5 to say hello and have a beer. Tcwayne is bringing his tools for cutting frags and it should be a great time. The address is 15614 Bear Creek Drive Tampa FL 33624 and my cell is 813 919-9881. There will be plenty of food, beer, tunes, epoxy and super glue gel! There is plenty of parking, a full sized ping pong table setup, a screened in patio area and hot tub if you're venturous - so stop on by!

how does the tank look? any pics?

 

[chrissu]

Here are some shots from the weekend of before, during and after. We had a good time!

Here is a before shot from last weekend. Notice the acro frags placed in the frag rack and along the sand bottom.

Chuck busy at work and asking for more super glue gel!

Here is an after shot. There used to be rock bumping up close to the front glass and that made cleaning it a pain. Now there is plenty of clearance. Chuck and Jessica grabbed some extra live rock I had in the sump and put it to good use, which gives the whole tank a fuller look to it. The new look is sharp! :beer:

Here's a close up of the center area of the tank. Now the Acros have a new home at mid depth directly under the lighting. There is now a cave area and a nice perch for the zoas and palys underneath. Both great ideas!

Thanks Chuck and Jessica! It was great to meet you and I really appreciate you guys taking the time to make this happen!

Any pix of Chuck in hot tub with that bikini & vest on from his avatar... Re-aquascaping looks great, Chris. Hope all the frags do well for you. Let me know when you want that red shroom (got a few blue/purple ones for ya too), & those zoas are ready for me...

I hate to be 'that guy' but just in case you didn't know, that tank is much too small for 3 tangs, and not big enough for even one hippo, let alone two. I'd remove all 3 and get more suitable fish for a tank this size.

The before and after coral placement is 1,000x better!

Looks great!

Hey Swampy, Will send PM to set a time.

No hot tub fun. Forgot my thong bikini. It was in the wash. Oh and I just got my hair did, so I couldn't mess it up for the Christmas party I had to go to.

Thanks for the compliments. Jess and I had fun helping Chris. Good times!
