It took about 3 months to sink the tank in the wall and get everything ready for water but in the last year I have added a chiller for insurance and some other things so I have change the plumbing around a couple of times. Gets hard to work around only one end of the tank.
The tank is still in the infant stages and all the corals are pretty small but I wanted it that way so I could watch them grow.
Great set up Otty, one day when I grow up, I wanna be like you. Very nice of to give bmshehan the R/O unit if you win. Good luck buddy. Luna
Thanks! I have already have an RO/DI unit and I know how it goes with a little one on the way, money gets really tight. Then again I kind a like him coming over to get water because I get to talk SW with someone that doesn't roll their eye at me. Kids will listen but all I get out of my 3yr old is "why, what for, why"!

Can't forget "Daddy" "Daddy" "Daddy" "Daddy" I seem to remember that quote for some reason! I'll still stop by to check things out, but if I win you just have to stop by my place just as often! Funny you mentioned about the shirt, I ordered mine on Sat. so I was telling my wife how I wished I had it for the video and we came up with the shirt idea. Then the babe told us what to write on there!
