My 20L

hahaha...i think i can manage as long as they aren't too close up...lol...So I get there and we start talking and he pulls out this net the size of a freaken lighter. So there were his Picasso clowns and the mis bar well the Picasso's were just swimming in and out of the net that is 3" by 3" and the mis bars were scrambling for there lives. OMG the worst time every trying to catch fish and after about 40 mins I got one and I was done. I'm going back tomorrow with a larger net to get the other one.

Vince, how are those corals I sold him doing? Are they looking good??

 

[fatrip]

yea everything is growing. two sets of Zoanthids have quadrupled in size and the frog spawn has more heads. The only thing that has died in his tank was the green polyp toadstool it never came out after we put it in.

I checked to see if there was a smaller bender so we could redo the light bracket with the two 90's but that was the smallest.

Not a problem the way it is now is fine. It looks good.

Looking real nice Vince!! I bet your psyched to be back in the saltwater game after a long absence. Give a shout when you are ready for some softies. I have a few things I could probably give you if you want them. I also have some leftover black paint that I used for my background if you need. I had to do about 4 coats to get a nice solid paint layer.

Cool thanks Jerry. Yea I am finally back to my addiction, the ten steps only worked for so long. What i am thinking about doing is getting another 20L or 29 or 37, anyway the same foot print as a 20l and put an over flow in it so that i'll have a surface skimmer and just put the tube for the HOB inside the overflow. but that will be later on...lol

I'm relieved that you thought to thru bolt that fitting! I think the smallest back to back 90 in 3/4" EMT is 16 or 17? prob a little too far from the back of the stand huh? Looks like a good job regardless.

 

[fatrip]

Thanks, yea I wish i could have done it with one piece but i needed the bend to start right where the first one stopped and that didn't happen...lol... Got done with my AquaClear 70 Mod and now I have cheato in that, will get a light for it tomorrow.
