Nice ! http://www.ultimatereef.com/ibv3/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Word of warning.

The Caulerpa and Xenia, they can be extremely invasive, if left unchecked.

I would at least isolate them to a piece of rock away from the main structure.

You might regret the day you introduced them.

Otherwise lookin Goooood ! http://www.ultimatereef.com/ibv3/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

the xenia came on the live rock, and yes I can see a problem with it due to the growth rate. Wife loves it so cant just pull it out.

Although the caulerpa also live rock hitcher but will remove next time i stick my hands in the tank.

Did you build it yourself?

[QUOTE]Did you build it yourself?

No had a furniture maker come in and build it, and must admit when i saw the finished result i was happy i did.

The guys who built it were impressed with their own work (first time they had done a cab around a tank)
they even replaced two glass doors due to minor scratches and any other minor problem they found.

Took three guys a day and a half to put it all together with all parts pre built the tanks sit on a steel stand..
The only down side is the halides have lost some ventilation so they will need to be taken down and some
additional holes drilled.

Now the sump is a diff story located in a room behind the tank and is nothing but wires and pipes, next
weekend job is to re-cable it
