Looks like I need to get going on my build again. Looks great keep the updates coming.

thanks brother, Ya been busy getting the reef club rolling good. Introducing some new ideas about donating supplies and getting members together to put some items like tanks heaters coral. to a store that takes kids that need guidance and gets them involved in the hobby and if they do good they give them the tank that they have been caring for as incentive. Very Very important to help i think. So i have laxed in getting pics up. thanks for the boost!!

Thanks School, mark a spot in the calendar, when the basement is finished I want to extend a invite to you and your club to come out and see it all done, and also get some networking started between our clubs.

Ok had some bad stuff pop up....well not too bad. In the QT i had a Naso die and 4 chromes. But better in the QT then in the DT!! the yellow tang is doing great, the Atlantic blue is finishing up ich and so is the unicorn tang. The Neon Gobie i think is too small to catch anything lol. Man the Unicorn Tang is small bout 3 inches but MAN can he eat!! I'm surprised he hasn't eaten the acrylic. I kinda like the QT system I have to tinker with it EVERYDAY!! but i keep a strict log of the whole shabang, the system and QT system. I totally recommend a QT system. Never believed in doing it but just recently had a break of crap that took 3 fish in my reef, all is good now but man never again!! especially since I have sooo much time and money in the BIg system
