plans: chalices, zoas, montis, ultra scollys, duncans, acans, misc LPS/zoas/Clams i'm going to stay away from sps until atleast 6 months and make sure i get a more stable environment.

thanks constantine. i should also add you and merv's tank builds are my inspiration plus i copy some of both your ideas! ;D you guys are awesome.

yeah. definitely not staying there. anyone have the problem with too much flow moving sand? it's starting to annoy me. that's why i liked Bare Bottom but it looks more natural in this type of setup.

merv what skimmer is that?

no unfortunately not. will be up and running by next week.

be kind not as cool as some of your tanks! FTS R-Side L-Side

ahhhhhhh I NEED MY TANK UP AND RUNNING!

i wasn't planning on it. pacquiao fight and my tita's birthday. so i'll be busy.

hey merv let me know the price of the "practice sump".  bubble boxes? ;))))

i'm thinking as far as corals/livestock: clams, chalices, zoas, montis, ultra scollys, favia, and BRAINS fish:  might go with two yellow tangs or one purple tang mandarin midas blenny and a pair of Picasso Clowns ^not in that order of course down the line hoping to get a profilux to...

i bought a tank that has to wait 3 weeks for it to contain water.....wth. i don't want to aquascape til i have my plumbing done. i'm going with black sand - why? cause the depth of the tank is far to easy for maintenance so i won't use a mag float to clean. so i could be extra careful not to...

that's cool. too bad he died. good luck with the next one. ;D

dude was it the tail spot? he was awesome. i've never seen him try to jump even when he was in my biocube (no top and rimless) RIP tsb

looks good MERV.  you make building everything look easy.  I HATE YOU.  btw, what are your plans for livestock/lighting? our "gallons" are almost identical having hard time thinking what i want to keep.

thanks for the info paul. i don't understand why they would drill to huge. I wouldn't think for the size tank would make sense for using a higher pressure bulkhead. i've never seen any problems or remarks of problems using schedule 40. thanks. i actually cheated and bought a bent 90and attached...

pic: sorry this is only the initial shot after getting it into the apt.  **please don't judge me by initial picture**  ;D

there's what it looks like.

i don't want to increase the size.  i read from a previous thread may cause problems.  i believe the bottom from prior posts of customers from glasscages say it's not tempered though.  i'll just make a call. when it says requires a hole of 2 3/8.  i would think that's the max diameter it would...

hey guys, I was wondering Bulkhead size for 2.75 diameter hole got a custom tank and they drilled a 2.75 hole. which makes no sense to me since it's a 50gal tank.
