The standard metal stand for a 10g is pretty cheap and Trop should have it.

I love reefer couples. Makes this hobby so much more fun when both are involved.

Tough to say. Figure your tank full is probably going to weigh roughly 100 pounds. There is no support under the tank which would worry me. The wife had a 20g that collapsed on a bookshelf when she tried to improvise.

Manhattan aquariums is the only store I know of in the city, it is close but not walking distance. It is over near the Lincoln tunnel.

Is this a sump as well or a pure fuge?

You are not crazy you are a reefer so we all understand that the more tanks the better. I have multiple tanks tied together so it can be done, display, frag, re circ, and sump. I think you will have more luck and less of a chane of flood if you use one return pump to feed both tanks with a...

I think you are going to be much much happier with the 4 bulb. There is not a coral you can't keep with proper placement under a 4 bulb fixture in a 10g tank.

Two bulbs might be enough for softies, but is really going to limit you to any other corals. I would prefer a 4 bulb fixture, that way you can do softies and anything else.

IIRC salt water was a buck a gallon, I have not bought it there in a long time but that seems right (50 cents for rodi). Rock depends on which type you are buying. They had a bunch of real rock in not too long ago that was really nice, but I don't remember the per pound price on it.

Happy Birthday Mr. Vice President

Great start to the Tale of the Tank. Take a level to the tank to make sure it is level, if too much pressure is to the front, there have been people where the glass failed at the curved point. I know that is a heavy thing to drop in a first post, but I would rather tell you now then have it...

Outside the joking around I wanted to do a quick rehash of MACNA and experiencing it (and any show for that matter) as an attendee and not running it. First off: They picked an amazing venue and had really great weather which just really helps the experience. We never left the hotel and where...

Thanks for letting us know and sorry for the delay, I just updated her which is something I don't usually do but I think I got it right.

Welcome back to the forum!! The live sand is now dead sand which does not mean you can't use it, you just need some live sand or rock from a fellow reefer to seed it. It might also need a rinse depending on where the bag was and how "open" the bag was. Are you going to go ahead with the 10g?

Did you submit the membership app as well? I know a few of us BOD members were at MACNA and it is a manual update which might account for the delay.

I don not need to anger the reef gods with posting pics right away. I will let the stuff settle in and then get some pics. Also, there was one vendor who is shipping stuff back to dnov99 and myself so there is actually more coming.

I don't have any pics to share from the show as it was just too much to take in but here is the styro container we brought and the frags being acclimated:

Terri and Anthony had a live food making demo at ther last meeting.

We stuck out in the regular raffles and did not stay down for today's mega raffles. Our flight was too early but I will take the ai. I felt like I was channeling you Anthony.

I won an ai hydra led in a raffle. Buying more corals then ever but there is some amazing stuff down here
