Looks great! ;Happy

What lights are going over the coral raceways? Have you decided on an opening (or even soft opening) date yet?

We will have XR30’s over our raceways. We are planning on an August 24th Grand Opening!

Any reason you went with sand instead of your normal bare bottom?

We like to mix it up! There are lots of ways to reef :) We don’t always go bare bottom. Casper’s reef for example is sand. We thought that this particular reef would look really good in this particular spot :D

Hey. Amazing work. Show tank decided to do with the sand? This is unexpected ... why is this decision made?

Thanks! We are opening up September 1st so be sure to stop by and check it out :)

Fantastic! I can't wait to experience the store! ;Woot

...although I thought that there would be a soft opening before MACNA. Forget the old adage "0 to 100" - it looks like you will be going 0-1,000 on opening day when MACNA is in full swing! Hopefully there will be a lot of energy drinks for your team!

No worries - thanks for clarifying. I'm sure that there are a lot of people who will be in Orlando for MACNA that will make a point of coming to see your new store! I know that I will make a point to get there shortly after you open (although I will probably skip the MACNA crowd).

Amazing jobs guys. Thanks for doing this build thread, very cool to see the progress. Looks like I'm going to be planning a family Sea World trip. "No no, you guys go ahead... Call me when you are done." ;)
