steppin it up man. Are you trying to show us up or something bro? lol

 

[palvyre]

Heh. I figured if I am setting up something new I should go LED. I am not handy enough for do it yourself and the apollo blasts look good.

My dad made a suggestion that took some of the steam out of my sails though. He said I should just save my money and buy all of the stuff when I am ready to buy the tank. That way all of the warranties line up. Sigh, he is right...

I already ordered my sump though
