[love2skiutah]

Thoughts, comments, questions, concerns would be greatly appreciated. I just threw down the cash and got it all paid for this week and I'll have my tank in 4 weeks and my stand 2 weeks after that.

I have re-sold my 120 setup already I have been in this hobby for about 10 years now.

Lee mar Starphire 96 X 30 X 32 Tall - It's really 399, but I'm going to call it 400 cause it makes me feel cooler.

I've been really really hesitant on these Queens, but the fish store is getting them in 6 weeks before my tank will be done. They said they will make sure they are eating 4-5 times a day and are nice and healthy before we put them in the tank. So they had me convinced. They are also giving them to me for dirt cheap, so I thought I'd try them.

Looks like it's going to be a nice setup. That's going to be a lot of Anthias! Are you sure that you want that many?

Yeah, I've really put a lot of thought into this and this is where I got the inspiration. I think Anthia's are one of the most under-rated fish. I love them.
