    or if you wanted something really pretty you could sell them off and just get some AI units, but after all the burned fingertips and other time /money invested in building what you've got I doubt that would be an option.

    I might actually have a couple units that I sell. I have contemplated selling the big tank too. If it is here and I have to see it empty I might get depressed (even more than I already am).

    I have decided on a 4*24*22 rimless from Great Lakes Aquariums. The large tank is already sold. The new owner and I are coordinating a date for pick up as he has to get his ready to transfer as well. The new tank will be located on the first floor in the kitchen. I am going to take the aluminim lighting rack I am building to an acrylic guy I have used in the past to have a professional skin job done with a splash guard and fan holes drilled out.. Chuck (the guy I got a lot of cool chalices from) said he would help me with the arms to suspend the light rack from. The tank will cost less and I will enjoy it more and I hope my family will too.

    I called great lakes and will be going out next week to throw the deposit down. Then it is going to be getting the lighing system adapted for this one. I can still use the skimmer. I will need to get a basic sump but other than that I am all good as far as equipment goes. Look for some Tunze's to be for sale in the not so distant future.
