Finally - new tank setting up this week.

[scoopsthedog]

Working with guys at UltraGem in Burbank. Can't recommend them enough great guys, match online prices, do not push to sell you equip / animals you don't need. Anyway going with a 50G with built in overflow and 18G sump. 24x24x20. Worked out the setup of rock - love to hear feedback. Going for a big cave in the middle with the top rock flat to host LPS and light hungry corals.

Rock is cured not "live rock" to avoid any hitchhikers. Same with the sand (ended up going black as he showed me black sand in his two year old tank that was still solid black).

Going to setup this Fri will take pics and keep everyone updated. Feel free to share you opinions / thoughts. Super glad I joined this forum.
