Richard - Can't Wait Til Xmas - We're Upgrading

[cvjeff]

Richard - We have had our second shipment for few weeks now! Every day we find a new treasure. I know I said we would be upgrading around Christmas time, but we can't wait.

We bought a 65g this week and will be setting it up this weekend. We are upgrading from an Oceanic 29g Biocube.

What would you suggest as far as additional sand/rock/critters?

Also, we want a good skimmer for the sump and your advise, or those from this forum would be appreciated.

You'll be getting an order from us next week, and I can't tell who is more excited, me, the husband or the kids! Thanks!

Why be timid? get a 180!

For us to have a 180g, one of the kids will need to move out

Seriously, would love one....can't afford one!

Thanks,
VJ

Octopus makes a good skimmer for that size tank, the DNW-110 which is rated for up to about 90g

Richard,

Everything arrived in good shape, as always. You really do a great job of packing everything.

We again, wanted to thank you for all of the wonderful treasures you have given us. I am really speechless, which is unusual for me, but you have sent some of the most beautiful rock I have ever seen. This shipment even outdid the last package we ordered from you, and I wouldn't have believed that was possible.

Everything is settling into the tank and starting to come out. We have sat chairs in front of the tank and have been completely absorbed in it.

Thank you so much for helping us create our little Florida Key ecosystem!! We'll keep posting to tell everyone the treasures we have found!

Richard - truly, thank you.

Vicki and Corey Jeffries

Richard.....I believe you sent us an entire rock of nothing but tube corals....this is a masterpiece of all rocks....thank you so much....it is beautiful. Oh and the gorgonians are really cool. My 13 year old son is very busy right now looking everything up to "tell" us how to take care of it. Thank you for helping us with this adventure, we are truly in your debt.
