That's really neat you don't see any change in temps. I may have to try this one day. :)

Thanks for the reply.

Not my garage..... I'm lucky that my house faces north. The only time it gets direct sun us in the morning and that is shaded by trees

My wife's does. I have worried she may one day pull up too far and bump the sump.

I was just giving Jay crap... Bump the sump might make some waves though. New concept to wavemaker... lol

Pic of the fish room from the outside. notice that it also acts as a storage unit with 2 shelf levels. the lower one just happens to be perfect to store golf clubs. dont pay attention the the frag swap grand raffle prizes in the picture....

Those tops really make that stand. Having seen this in person, I am really impressed with your skills.
You could make $$ doing this.

Rinsing sand is no fun :sad:

When I set my tank up I thought about sand blowing everywhere. I used crushed coral with that thought in mind.
Knowing a little more now (dont laff), I wish I had used sand. I really love some of the Goby's and thats off the fish wish list now. :-(
