Thanks everyone.

I have been out of town on business, nice cyno outbreak & calcium drop. I got it under control & everybody is healthy. I will update this weekend when I have some time. I'm still catching up at work.

Subfloor is concrete slab for 2 story house with tension cables inside. Yes I am still freaking out a little on the weight.

I have a 3 car garage with 4 cars in it. I have a lift with my vet on top & viper under. A 69 camaro pace car in fron & wifes slk in her slot. 4 X 3500 lbs =14,000 plus 1 ton lift & all the other crap in it. So I figure 1 car over another is about 9000 lbs & I have had no problems.

I have a friend that is an engineer & designs natural gas pump stations & he felt I had no problems.

Tangs seem to get ick even when nothing new is introduced. My big tangs are 12 yrs old & get ick about 1-2 times a year. Garlic in their food for a couple weeks & it is gone.

Thanks for looking at thread

Ok you can't brag about the cars without posting pics. Some of us reefers are car guys too.

realy like the tank, I love my hammerhead as well. For the size and power consumption it rocks, and the noise level is lower than a normal conversation. I to love both hotrods and tanks...Maybe a trip from Austin to visit some family in Lake Jackson and stop by and check out the tank.

Do the drip pan in the bottom of the stand.

I have plexi on the bottom & up 3" for the sides containing the entire bottom of the stand. I have had 2 minor water spills & it saved me a big cleanup & the wrath of my wife.

Thanks everyone for their kind words. I am starting to enjoy it now that I have some life in there.

Friday I bought 5 Bartlets anthesis, a copperband, tube anenome, green bubble coral,10 fighting conch & a large frogspan.

Now I have:
5 fancy anthesis
5 bartlets anthesis
6 chromis
powder blue tang
purple tang
Clown tang
3 yellow tangs
fox face
marine betta
3 clowns
1 manderin
2 scooter blenny
hawk fish
coral beauty

Think thats all.

Tomorrow I am going to order a large Purple Long Tenticle Anenome.
