    Time for something a little bigger. I used my old 12 gallon cube drilled for a sump and fired it back up.. I used a 10 gal sump, a air driven protein skimmer and my 72w's of pc's for now.. Getting a 150MH pendant tomorrow via ups if all goes right.. Here's some pics...

    Looks bereft of coral compared to the 2.5. Good looking scape, and great set up. That leather has an awesome color. Just waiting for that great decorating of yours to be completed.

    I am going with all sps's once I get my new pendant tomorrow... I'll keep a couple lps's but not many.. I ordered a stronger return pump for my sump and a jbj surface skimmer since I gave it away when I took my tank down the first time...

    Looking great. I would love the extra space now too. I think I might end up doing what you are doing in the future.

    Not the biggest fan of soft corals, but that leather is awesome.
