I simply can't trust people that don't like bacon,

I did buy an elos mini from Austin but never set it up. When aquascaping just realized it would be too small. We sold it and ordered a Miracles 60g Rimless - 36" x 22" x 18" (L x W x H).
I will not be posting a stocking list until fish are added to the tankHave to have some surprise and suspense to the thread. It will include most all our existing fish with a fair number of additions and some very rare ones if they do well.
Won't be quite a while until there is a pic of the pair of BKs running side by side. My old one (BK 300) is not running currently, until the 520 has water in it. The new one (BK 250 SM) is running on the fish holding system.
Fish on the way...there are two boxes of fish (not that many just wanted them in lots of water to make a safe trip) coming tomorrow. It is really just targetted around 2 fish then some filler stuff to take up space in the boxes![]()
That was quick LOL, glad you decided to come over here and share this amazing build with us!
Im not sure what's more impressive, the planning, the team work, the shear size of your system or your wife's participation. Aquascaping is one of my favorite parts about setting up a new tank and of the hobby and she did an amazing job.
Last week I got in a big fight with my wife about "this coral is new, how much was that".......It has been in the tank for months and the tank is right next to her beloved TV LOL.

Sweet! That think takes up the whole wall!
Gonne be a sight to see all full of fish!! Thats a HUGE tank!!

Thanks.
Well small update. I got the final mud coat on the outside wall of the tank today, should be able to sand tomorrow and get some paint on there. This means we can get the basement cleaned and re-assembled - our main TV we watch is right by the tank and it was just upgraded....I really want to try out the 3D on it!
Yesterday and today I did not get a whole lot done, lots of errands to run. As a side note, my fish from Hawaii came in VERY nice....they are all in QT and settling in. Once they are past the critical phase I will think about getting some pics.
Maybe I need Dejavu to stop on over to get some pics....I know he is dying to see some of the fish that came in anyhow....
