    Kev, you suk, ;) I thought it was a fire sale or something. ;D

    Looks really nice, any trouble with tile shifting? I am moving the 165 very soon, so any heads up would be nice. I am moving it to a wall section that has the bath room opposing it, that is where my RO/DI will be set up and my skimmer will drain - no more stinkage via collection cup empties. That smell is awful.

    That is very nice. Its a perfect size for your kitchen dining area. What a great location for a tank. Have a nice family dinner and ignore the wife while I look at growth tips and polyp extension. :)

    Seriously though, very impressive set-up there.

    Nope I havent had any trouble, but it might depend on the type of stand to...My stand is actually built onto what is nearly a solid wood platform that is perfectly level...and the floor where it sits is perfectly level too (good job on the cement slab pourer's part whoever they were!)....My suggestion would be to make it positively level :)

    Just wanted to post an update...tho i am still battling hair algae (for like a year now) and nothing has fixed it! AHHH! But ANYWAYS back to what i was saying...I have upgraded my lights to all LED! Went with the AquaIlluminations SOL Blue fixtures...Got em at TB Aquatics, shout out to Brian over there...best prices for sure! They look great and I'm lovin all the features...maybe this will help aid my fight against the evil GHA! Over-driving my T5's was gettin expensive (8 new 48" bulbs every 4 months to keep a decent par!)....very happy like a kid at christmas right now
