a friend bought a 240 gallon full setup without a stand and needed a place to hold the livestock intell he got the stand built and tank setup.

he got a rbta and after it being in my tank for 4 days it split. maybe our falt when transfering it. the base was on 2 seperate rocks and we kinda pulled and tugged it. not on purpose.

he finally got all the stuff out and i moved all my stuff from my 72 gallon a week ago and took some pics today. need to get some mh bulbs fixture came with cheap ones so dont mind the white color. i am going to get 14k phenix.
