I think the title says it all really - 65 gal - LOL :lol:

Been for just over 3 years (just a newbie as far as UR contributions)
- but seriously thinking of an upgrade - seen what I want, and after discussions today at a certain shop not too far away ;) think it's the way I'll go - Just trying to be critical to myself and think what is not right about the system I want but failing miserabally it's well ..... the dogs Jacob's so to speak.

Just the final negociations with the Mrs to bottom out now - so far its a new dining room table, chairs and accessories???? Its what makes this Hobby so Bl**£!y expensive.

Taking your Pictures no problem - but I'm sure you can do it too just take your time and know what your after and don't settle for less.

As they say watch this space.

Cheers

Getting paranoid or what B)

Paranoid :D

Everyone has these, but you can only see your own. If you are a very bad boy you start loosing points until, eventually, you get booted off.

Update to previous post yesterday.....


Done it - have just had delivered new tank

Formally it resided at STM ..... The Deltec Bow front full systemised setup. 64" x 27" x 24" finished in silver. Did a deal and its now in my hallway. So heavy and just fits thru the doorway 1 to spare. Just the setup and swap to get my head round now.

Any advice welcome.

Try and get some progress pics.

Cheers

Martyn - bloody poor now - but oh so happy.. :D

Whoa that's some system you've got there. Open the cabinet doors and you think you've popped the bonnet of the space shuttle. I wouldn't know what half the gadgets in there are. I run a mud sump so the only thing mechanical in my setup is a pump! Like to see some pics of that mama.
