Trip to premium

[mojo~]

Thought I would share what I got at premium today. Even though I call them more than my own family, I have never been there. So I went down there today to pick up my new tank. I always enjoy a new tank. I have gotten a eheim 1260 for it. a geisemann fixture is on the way, and I ll have to make a sump for it as I found that my custom sump is 1 inch to wide for it.

Well here is a peek.

Thanks Premium for a great experience. I will have to come down again.

Wow, nice tank Mojo... should look clean with the Giesemann over it. Love how the stands open from the end too to allow more access and ease of putting a sump in.

Thanks Big_D

Now what skimmer are you going to use? LOL

Which Giesemann fixture did you get for it???

Thats a great tank... I have the Oceanic Ultimate 58g as one of my displays and was considering the 57 Illuminata for my bedroom...

I think premium has another sitting right behind the one I bought lol.

I will use a vertex in 100 that i got at premium for now. Until later this fall. I think there is something that will be about perfect for it.

I got the Geisemann Nep Tune pro 250w halide with 2 t5ho

I'm dying for a Spectra fixture, but haven't been able to justify it yet... I'm going back and forth between the Spectra and an ATI PM... Maybe thats what I'll get myself for christmas...

Sorry I missed ya, but I had to go play with the Cichlid people in Cincy.

Glad to see it made it home safely!

And for anyone interested, there are 2 left. One RR, one standard.

The standard may be my new planted tank if I win a bet with the wife. Wish me luck!

Oh I will I am working a little bit on it each day this week. I am homing to have water in it on sunday. I still have to build a sump and slowly steal my electronics from my 90 gal so I can get them mounted and get the wires tucked away nicely. I have to make some sort of contraption for the lights as well. So the end of my week is pretty heavily loaded. We will see. The biggest issue is this is going where my 90g is. so I cant have them both up at the same time. lol. Good thing for totes

Do they have other sizes besides 65 gallon? I would like a 120 wide.

 

[mojo~]

its actually a 57 gallon. 3 inches shorter than a 65

Right now the 57g Illuminata is the only rimless Oceanic tank...

Thought I would post a link to my build thread so you could see the end result. Thanks much premium. I am really happy with the tank.

Just a quick update. Had to make trip two to premium. My stand had a crack started on the base. Iwasnt too worried as it was along the carpet line. And without a hesitation Jeremysaid that needed replaced and to come and get a new stand. They would deal with oceanic. Simply amazing. Worth the time and drive to go to premium. Amazing service. Thanks guys.

The real question is, how many fried pickles did you eat at the fair after you left?
