FlCandy Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Looking stellar! You're tank looks huge in the FTS. I'm so jealous of all your SPS. I hope I'll be keeping some in the future and if I have half the growth and PE you do I'll be thrilled! It's 46 gallons so it's a good deal larger then your BC, but I would like a 90G down the road! Don't tell the hubby! Thanks I never thought I would be able to keep SPS but I proved myself wrong these last 4 months. Once I got the Red Monti and the Green Tip Birdsnest (fluffy green/yellow one) I was hooked. Link to comment

Hey Candy, Great photo dumps. I am enjoying following the growth of the sps pieces you've picked up. What is the significance of the "Happy 4/20" ? Did I miss something in the thread or is this an insider joke? Kevin Thanks! I am still in awe of how fast their growing! It was "National Smoke Out Day" Yesterday for the people who do that kind of thing. I was playing along. Headed out to get the rest of the plywood and the stain and some new tools for A. Oh and molding as well as the silicone and I will look around for the black paint for the back of the 2 tanks. Big day people! I will get the tank on Tuesday with my sister when we go and get my niece a hamster! Link to comment

FlCandy Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Okay here are the pics I promised. Still needs alot of sanding, the front door cut out, and the bottom molding but it looks good. I like the molding. Damn good job on the corners, they need sanding but they match up pretty. Like I said needs sanding but it is pretty. SUMP taped out. FTS 4-22-12 More to come soon.

FlCandy Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Yeah he was mad at it I will get a pic of the inside next time we have it out. He couldn't cut the corner's right on the bottom board to fit it flat so he had to box it out. But it give me shelves now, so I have safety from splashing. I like it a lot. Link to comment
