:lol: I said the same ..... I didn't have enough good rock so it is very thin but I am happy with it thus far. Once I get my corals in place and lps placed you will see another new tank.

Thank you ! I am glad my tank can still inspire in its state I was slow at getting going on the swap as my 120 was nice but I had a few signs that told me I needed to do this. One of those was a reef slide on Saturday which made 1/2 the tank unstable. Anyways keep a look out for the new pics later.

Here's an updated shot still working at it

Really starting to look schweeeeeet.

Awesome !!!!!! I was loving the Rock work redo of your old tank, now this? Beyond Incredible.

 

[clkwrk]

Thanks Guys! I just got done puting most of the corals in place and now I am working on the lights . It is really starting to take form and I need some stags to grow real quick to fill in the right side as that is large open stag zone.

Very nice! Everything looks like it is starting to grow out.

 

[clkwrk]

Okay things are defintely coming together. 4 out of 5 lights are now going with a missing pigtail keeping me from get the 5th going although I am just going to cut it and hardwire it together for now.

So whats the verdict

awesome tank chris, hope mine looks half as good as yours when mine gets done

 

[NexDog]

Verdict? GUILTY (of having a very, very, very nice new tank).

 

[clkwrk]

Thanks ! I decide to take a break from the water and moved onto the streams and the rest of the equipment . I had it all running last night but the equipment area looked like a spider web and fire hazard so I am cleaning that up now so I can get some sleep .

Looks great!:eek1: Can't wait to see it as it grows in!:thumbsup:

Can't believe you didn't send me the link to this! Of course I'm glad I didn't find it before now while you stressed about the tank! LOL Another nice job - you've done all this and I'm still waiting for doors on the front of mine!

You got your tank on my birthday! So what's MY gift? I did add an Atlantic Blue Tang for my birthday - first fish back since I lost everything.

Talk to you soon - either here or on mine....
