Great pics, keep um coming!! Love the 4 purple tangs! and the clean set up

Will do Emoney. I'm currently looking for a new camera. All those pics were taken with my iPad or iPhone. From here on out it will be all livestock pics and the LEDs really blow out the cameras I have. You can't see anything in the tank really. Need a good SLR camera and a crash course in tank picture taking with said SLR LOL!!

Holy crapola! That is a very clean and professional build.. I think this may be one of my personal all time favorites.. Also, I think tinted glass doors would look awesome on the stand.

Keep the pics coming!

Wow thanks for the compliment Garrett. I took the doors off the stand while I was working on it. I'm really liking the look when the blue stand lights are on. I may have to put glass in the doors now. I don't want to cover up all that work I put into the stand. LOL!

Thanks Ritter. I'm going through a bout of very cloudy water I can't seem to clear up right now. I'm cutting back on my ZEOvit dosing and did a water change. Slowly adding corals and fish. Like I said earlier, I'm in the market for a good camera and a crash course in photography or my build thread won't go much farther LOL.

Quite impressed, and finally someone local (ish). I'm in Houston on occasion, perhaps one day I can stop by.

That is one amazing build. You are literally my idol right about now. I'm hoping to do something similar after a move in a few months so I may hit you up for some advice.

Your my aquarium hero, this is AMAZING how much do you think you spent in total for this setup? :)


Sent Via the R2R Forum APP

Thanks again everyone. I'm glad you all enjoyed my build. Rapalaboy I didn't keep track of what my total cost was. I know what the big ticket items cost but it would take some time to go back and list all the receipts including the 984756 trips to Lowe's and Home Depot. LOL
