Wow it’s been a long time. I haven’t had time as the hurricane and school and sports and stuff. Well I just built the stand last week and I got all the equipment in already. I plan on drilling the tank and display fuge now. Also we will be cutting glass for the sump soon. Hope to start the cycle in the next 2 weeks. I will have pictures later tonight.

dangit I forgot the picture. Well I just left the house for a hockey game for my highschool. We have some of the best kids in all of Florida but we aren’t the best team bc we don’t play full on most of the time and the best players are usually out of state and country playing in tournaments

Awesome to see another teenage reefer.. I got my first tank almost 2 years ago now (I’m 17). At the moment, I’m rolling with a 30g AIO Innovative Marine tank along with a 10g mantis shrimp tank[emoji12]. Plans for a 120g are in place for the near future.

Ok Brett, you've got 2 hydors coming. Both new, 240gph each. (Sticking my tongue out) they will be shipped separately. Now you can get something fun for Christmas. You are doing me a favor by helping me make room for some other stuff I actually need.

I’m sending it back if u buy it. Also I will be buying an apex after the tank is a few months old because I’m applying at a few places for a job!
I know lots of people. :) Might get lucky.
