Agree, that's crazyWOW, that's crazy. :eek1:

Dennis... since you seem to be on point and very talented with DIY projects, i nominate you to design an acrylic/plastic mount for the gyre.
Something that attaches in your cabinet and suspends the gyre in the tank. This way no snails can climb onto it!!!!

As a prospective gyre owner I am very sad to say that I have innumerable snails constantly reproducing in my tankWhoa! As a Gyre owner I am glad I have no small snails (Let alone any snails)! :O

lol, ummmm... :worried:Dennis... since you seem to be on point and very talented with DIY projects, i nominate you to design an acrylic/plastic mount for the gyre.
Thanks!Great setup, tank, thread, and everything. You about have me sold on wanting to try a lifereef skimmer.
ha! Have you tried a wire shelf like I'm using?Oh and while your at it can you get GHL to make a shelf for their doser!
Looking good as always Dennis!
I find your cleanliness and organization irksome.

Actually I did spill some clear pvc cleaner!+1
I would have spilled purple pvc primer on that shelf 3 times by now and given up and painted it purple!
Looking great Dennis! The towel rack is a perfect idea. I might just have to steal it

I currently don't dose any additives. I have the CaRx so that takes care of alk, calc, and mag.The towel rack is ingenious! Can I trouble you to please post a picture of how you have your doser and additive containers setup? I'm looking for ideas how to place things for my new build, and the wire rack sounds like a winning idea.
I almost didn't post that towel rack shot due to the plumbing mess on top of the counter!I agree. At this point you should do another panorama shot so we can see all the half finished jobs to counter the "staged" clean shots so far. :rollface:
Coming along nicely.

Hello Dennis, great tank. what benefit thos the mangrove do?
Thanks!
Here's a couple more....
My Mangroves have doubled or nearly tripled in size. At this point it looks like all 50 of them have sprouted, even ones that I thought were never going to make it but I was too lazy to remove.

And a shot of my short spine sea star that Richard sent me with all the TBS rock.

And speaking of tbs rock, I was just telling someone the other day that I haven't seen any porcelin crabs yet, which I was a little bummed about because I love those guys. Well, last night I was feeding the tank and whatta ya know... I counted at least TWELVE of them! Most were really small, just babies. But there they were, waving their fans. :wavehand: I also count at least 5 big red mithrax crabs every night. I love freebies. :lol2:
And what's that I spy?
A white towel bar? :lol:

I'm not sure those towels are appropriate, they contain too much color. :uhoh2:
