New to the site and thought I would introduce myself with my tanks thus far. I have only been in the hobby for about 2.5 years but my obsession has bloomed quickly.

My name is Tom and I have a problem.

Tank #1, a 120g I had setup for a little over a year while in college.

Tank #2, a 55g Hexagon I had setup for about 8 months in England

Wow, very nice. I am in Winter Park twice a year visiting friends. If you end up there and setup that super cool square tank, I want to see it!!! I bet it will be awesome.

not to bad... actually I might have to sell this tank within the next 2 or 3 weeks.. that is if I get my visa for the states. If I do my next project will be bigger and better and hopefully I'll be in the same place for a few years.

Thanks!
