    Default Re-designing my tank

    I am re-designing my tank so sadly I am forced to sell. Thought I would let you guy see one of my caps before it is gone (hopefully).

    Way too beautiful not to show off...

    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.

    I am redesigning the whole tank. I built a new hood for better lighting (will have a total of 1600 watts of light). I replaced all of my sieo pumps with tunze nanostream. The tank is pre-drilled for a closed loop that I never set up so I am going to finally set it up (thinking of going with a motion pump from ocean motion). I am just selling that 1 cap colony it has grown way to big for my tank. It is only about an inch from the top of the tank. I am going to change my rock around so that I can place all of my other caps on the bottom so my acro can get more light by being placed above the caps. Basicly my tank has been setup to long with out me playing with it so it is time for a change.

    Well the cap was picked up last night. I have a lot of room now. I was surprised at the amount of flow that it blocked Once I removed it my overall flow in the tank was unbelievable. Also started on the hood but it started snowing in phoenix yesterday, it did not stick but it was snowing.
