Thanks everyone for the compliments,
Jason, I couldn't have done it without the help of other reefers in our club. Everything we built (filter sock box, sump, calcium reactor, stand, and everything else) was a joint effort from all of us. If you need help to start a BIG tank, I know a few people:beer:
julianp, I have kinda been lacking in this thread due to a fire(you can see pics in my gallery)so I temporarily started a 75 gal for 4-5 months but I am finally ready for the 210 again. mmmnnnnn....I like the seahorse, pipefish idea in the fuge, right now I have a 6-7" desjardini tang in there waiting for his new home to be built.
Chris, both Jo and I would still like to see your new baby whenever is good, I know your busy. No worrys, when I start the 210 I will have tons of spare room for your stuff. If I were you I would take this opportunity to do everything you want to while your tank is empty and you wont be rushed. By then mikes 55 gallon plastic drum on casters would be perfect to hold all your live rock, and I will hold all your corals, just don't be surprised when they shrink instead of grow in my tank...mmmm....weird. Also I think we did a group buy with Tom, Jason, Mike,and I and bought like 50 socks at a great price. Jason I'm sure remembers where we got them from.
Tom, Yup we are moving to the living room, so I will be able to leave the other tank set up while I set the new one up. And im not really into LPS too much but I might be into the idea of a fish only tank???? don't know for sure yet.
