Running errands earlier and all Of a sudden I slammed my brakes and started to drive backwards. Daughter looked at me like she saw a ghost and I told her " I'll be right back".

It was a garage sale and look what I found to go in front of the 660g . . . and for $5 !!!!!!!

Interesting.... Just got an Atlantik V4 to replace my 2 Hydra hd 26s and might need to supplement the ends with my hybrid.
I have 5 Atlantiks and this will be bar #3 and 4. they compliment the Atlantiks very well !!

Actually, we had a 360g full of coral to transfer and they fit in there best

Publix....We usually only shop there for the specials, like the buy one get one free. Aldis or Walmart for everything else. We have been here in Fla for about 4 years and I feel like I am on semi retirement. Located in Palm Bay, one town next to Melbourne on the east coast.
WOW finally finished catching up, Amazing how fast it has come together. I have no idea how you would move that tank let alone you have others. + side to FLA, most of the houses are cement slabs. Your Way PAST MONSTER tank is a definite possibility without having to worry about the floor you put it on.
What is going to be your biggest challenge getting your reef tanks moved and set up. Maybe all us FLA R2R will have to come down to Miami and assist in the setup.

That would be sweet- Food/Beer/ Music !!!!
660 i decided is not coming along and I have a 1500 from Cutler bay waiting for me. Thanks for tips on where to shop. I did find Publix a little Pricey but a huge selection of regular and ethnic foods
