Hawkeye, we have our meetings the first Saturday of the Month and we are a group that lives in the 3 counties North of St. Pete.

You are always welcome. Good luck with the woodworking. I know it is a wonderful hobby. My father has a great wood shop. Someday we hope to inherit some of the equipment, but my brother will probably get it as he lives right across the street.

well Pmike25 i have just spent two hours looking at you build an i must say you did a great job. Well what i would recomned would be the neptune system i got mine a few mounths ago and love it for the controller and the program that keeps tabs on just about everything you have in your tank you should take a look at there site. http://www.neptunesys.com i have the neptune three and i am using x10 lighting system with it and i got all my stuff on ebay cheap compared to the web site prices. i can tell you a lot that will help you save some money just give me a shout and i will help you in any way i can great job al of it. you can buy 8 controllers on ebay for the x10 for 80 dollars anf the dc8 cost you 174 i think so you see the savings there hope to hear from you thanks again for the step by step info i have learned a lot . :smokin:

Hey Hawk- Thanks for those compliments...I defentaly am considering the Neptunes for sure. There might be someone locally selling one, Im going to wait till I hear from a fried about that. But if I cant find one used Im going to get the Neptune 3 . If I have any questions I will let ya know, Thanks again, Mike

Here a few shots of it with the Tunzes and just full tank shots, I removed some rocks and added 4 more xenia's.Im done with those for now!!!! I am looking for some cool frags also if theres anyone out there that needs to get rid of some . I also added a fox face yesturday but couldnt get any pics of him cause hes still hiding!!

In this shot Im going to clean up all the wires once I get the Neptune, I am planning on making some nice face plates for them and hiding all the wires so it looks all nice and neat......
