    Well, I finally did it!! I decided to upgrade to a 210...this will be my final upgrade seeing as I have no more room for a bigger tank....I ordered the tank from work (a deal I could not turn down) and it came in last Friday. It's an AGA reef ready with twin Megaflows. Measures 72x24x29. It now sits in my garage waiting for me to get all the prep work done. I also got another 40 breeder to use as an additional sump. I'll keep everybody posted on the progress. I'm going to take pics of the whole process.....

    Moving along on this venture! I got the twin Megaflows in yesterday for the tank. I ordered a new protein skimmer from My Reef Creations, an MR3. That came in last Friday...what a beauty!! I've got 50# of rock coming in tomorrow and I'm also picking up some select pieces from work. I've been looking for Southdown sand everywhere and finally located a store on Cape Cod that has quite a few bags. Saturday road trip coming up!!! I'll keep everyone posted!!! Pics of new skimmer attached!
