You must have a REALLY COOL WIFE. If I had that in my living room, my wife would leave me LOL

I was just joking about all that.

This took months and my wife is an angel for letting me do all that errrr ummm stuff.

The trick was to keep the 3 little boys from tossing change in and making a wish. The cats only went in twice that we know of.

Love the tank and setup. Well thought out and very clean setup!

I've been having problems with temp control so the 1/2hp chiller is going outside, snapper is going byebye and I'm re-plumbing the entire setup tomorrow. (I'm using professionals this time)

Wish me luck.

Thanks guys.

~10 hours of work for 2 guys and it's all done! Reef Empire rocks! They did a great job.

Chiller is outside, all new plumbing and the hammerhead is rocking. Holy Flow!!! I'm pitching powerheads like crazy.

pix?

I did take pics but left the card at home of course. I even shot some uneventful video of Nate crawling under the house. The raccoons, possums and skunks didn't even try to eat his face off.

I'll get the pics up soon.
