    Nice that you decided to go with a Peninsula. I love being able to view all sides of mine. Glass cleaning is a chore though... :)

    The (3) 250w 20Ks are temporarily hanging, until we get the completed light rack. The Tunze 6305/7096 controller came in for the wave box and they are rockin'. Subtle, but I find myself staring at the corals moving constantly.

    lol my dad has to go up to work to san diego once in a while, takes him a while to get home, must be because of traffic. lol you drive hours to go to the lfs :eek: i have one that's 10 minutes away and that's where i get my water from. Farthest i've driven for a lfs is Huntington beach, don't know if i'd want to drive an hour or so to san diego. But i'm sure it would be worth the drive

    I am a rep, so i drive alot. I hit the LFS's in other cities while im there on biz.

    Upstate NY is alot dif than SOcal.

    I however, can drive a distance of 80 miles in 1 hour... that would take you like a whole day based on my trips there. redic traffic

    Tank looks great. Do you have a pic of the raised sand bed for the clams you talked about earlier? Either I'm blind and just don't see it in the fts or what, idk.
