Yeah it does when it wants to, it must be the way I have the camera pointed or something, cause we try with a flash and without one and sometimes one or the other works and sometimes nothing works and we even putz with the macro setting. One of these days we will figure this thing out!!!

This hobby is amazing. I just found this thread, read the first three or four posts on page 1, and then fast forwarded in time to last page, then I turned back one page and saw the pics of your tank as it is now.
Mike, as long as there are people like you, this will always be a great hobby. I don't know what all took place between pages 1 and 17, but you came a long way buddy. And you obviously got some great input. Congrats.

Ohh yes I did get some great input. I have learned alot from this site. I try giving back some knowledge when I can but I can only offer what I know. I dont like to give info away if im not sure of what Im writing!! But ive helped out some people with designs and the electrical part. The ONE thing ive learned is how expensive this hobby can be. Thats why it has been slow progress lately. With my son breaking his arm and my wife hurting her knee and needed to go to the Emergency room, I lost her working with me and jobs started to slow down alittle, so were trying to fill the good ol bank acct back up!!! Dang doc.s are so expensive these days and its hard to find ones that dont accept insurance, cash only pays is hard!!! But THANK GOD we have our son fully covered!! Anyways enough of the woooooos!!
Lets see between pages 1 and 17 I found a 180 dual drilled really cheap and just had to have it, so thats why its a 180 instead of the 150 in the thread title!! Than I just asked a million questions and read a ton and had some good people on here help me with plumbing and all, as far as the stand goes, Ive always wanted a crazy looking stand (well to me its alittle above normal) so I started to build one with no clue of how exactly I wanted it, but many trips to the HD and Lowes took care of that. Thats a pretty good summary for you of whats between pages 1-17!!!!LOL
Thanks for the comments, much appericated!!!
Bobby- OK man that sounds cool, thanks..Ill keep you in mind for sure when it comes time for me to start trimming some things back. Thats nice of you to do.

OK yeah... so I couldn't sleep last night so I decided to take a stroll through reef central to get some ideas for my new project I am doing in August. Came across this thread and WHAM! It has taken me 2 hours to read the whole damn thing and I swear to god I thought I was in a thriller movie... waiting to go to the next page... anticipating new work done... hoping he would take some crunk pics... then cobras come out of no where... insane plumbing work flys across the screen... wood work from god himself... I swear man... you should start charging for admission to check this thread out. Or patent it because you know Im going to "mimic" pretty much everything youve done here!!! PS... beware I may fill up your inbox!
