    Fish room build “this is the way”

    good idea about deading the lighting for 90 days, I may go that route as well. my wife is big on huge arches and glueing rocks. I just stack them, but I do make caves and small arches etc for my fish to hide in. yeah I think my old rocks are from Tampa Bay, just tons of life on them, they're...

    Fish room build “this is the way”

    I bought mine from a reefer up near Philadelphia. he decided to go with the 180 instead. he bought new and never used. Not sure how long it sat in his garage or at the store, but it's stamped 2015. I can clearly see that the tank was never used though without question. I got it for $500 with a...

    not too much going to get done today. basically cleaning up and doing some real work $$$$ after that. but I did tack the interior floor, sides and rear with some nice birch this morning.

    MEGA FLOW 210! Really I feel like I could make so many jokes right now. I mean "mega flow?" that's what they decided to call it? PC police are all over the place and I don't want to be labeled as a racist, xenophobe, misogynist or whatever else is waiting for me but really I have been called...
