That's what I was thinking rob - just was trying to guage whether it would be cheaper to have one built to my specs or for me to build one. Main problem is no table saw. I got a circular and miter...but when I tried acrylic in the past I've always cracked a 45$ sheet trying to use a circular lol...

Haha love you too brad! I have a 15 tall that was a tetra tank for a while. It should be an easy tank to track down, I got mine at Petsmart. Marineland brand.

Gena...I must be the youngest 24 year old then hahaha jk

 

Also...I'm going to build the second cabinet for the reef angel this weekend....and then finish them both together....I haven't decided yet...but I think hype has convinced me to get a seahorse pair...so the third tank may be a seahorse and dragon tongue tank.....oh shiizzz

Nope I didn't haha....I was originally gonna do a frag tank and mantis tank...however may put a mantis in the new sump and cut a window in the door to make floating display fuge....I'm so bad haha...its gonna be like 4 tanks in one lol...

Oh...I thought you had put up drawings before with two small tanks flanking the big tank...or was that the frag and mantis tanks? Maybe I dreamt it. Or maybe I'm psychic :lol:

Your right this was the drawing/idea...but I'm changing it to clownemetope on right and seahorseytope on left I think...and new sump will be windowed for display..

Window for sump = cool. sometimes the most interesting go on in there :)

I think so too!!!!!

 

I would soooo love to add a side display refugium full of cool macros.

Yea. I think the seahorse tank I'll move the dragon tongue over.. and add 3 or 4 mangroves and some planted halimeda(sp?).and the new sump will be 20 long and 18 high...soon I'm thinking a fuge window that's 14inches wide by 14high. And maybe add another macro other then cheato to the sump..something bluish or orangish..maybe put a couple sponges

So I'm gonna concentrate on getting both tanks set up at the same time - provided my clowns can behave for a couple more weeks. Picking up a 15 high tonight provided pet smart still has it. So sump first. Then I'll add the water volume of both tanks after new sump.settles...oh this is gonna be funnnnnnnnn
