iball1804 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 True. Just get the tank and cut it half! It's not to hard. I actually did that with a 30L and it worked out great! Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 Led's are are awesome! Unless you ask Mike Maddox.... Yes. MM also said that Metal Halide fixtures were also a form on incandescant. What a bum. Link to comment
Squared Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 yay pictures i saw them and i was all like yay pictures Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 I saw your post, and was like "Yay Squared." Fer real get on that tank idea. Get some glass shops to quote it! Link to comment
Squared Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 i need to sell my junk first. that's the hard part, so that's why i've been on the edge with this idea for a couple months now Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 You only have one tank correct? Start selling the frags. One by one. On craigslist for like 20$ a pop. Then the equipment. Once everything is sold, you will have a lot of monies to spend. Go LEDs by the way. I will never go to your thread if you don't. Link to comment
Squared Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 i would keep most of the frags. i plan on a single PAR30 bulb Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 All the frags from a 29g into a 5g? Have you ever been this small before? Link to comment
Squared Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 i had a nc12, which only a couple gallons larger than the one i sketchuped. i don't have that many coral. Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 It might work. Sounds like a plan. Again get out and get some quoting! Make sure you know exactly what it'll cost before you pull the trigger on anything! Link to comment
metrokat Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Cute xenia. For the sketch, colored shoes please. Ill pm you a larger pic. Thanks! Link to comment
ry05coupe Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I don't think the link in your sig is working, had to find this thread through your profile. The tank looks sweet! Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 I don't think the link in your sig is working, had to find this thread through your profile. The tank looks sweet! Thanks bro. I was messing with my signature and messed with the code a little bit. Got it fixed! Link to comment
NURSE33.4 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Hey iball! Don't know if you remember me, but I'm finally ready to get my tank going. Sold my 34 gallon and am waiting on quotes for some glass Decided on 24x15x9 (or 10?). One shop has emailed me back and said it'll be around $95 including tax for the glass which would be 1/4" plate glass with polished edges. How does that price sound? Oh yeah, and My LEDs are already setup anddd your tank looks awesome Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 You're back! Those dimensions sound veryyyy nice! The quote you received is a very good. My tank was around 71 cents per square inch. Yours is around 35 cents per square inch. Again, it still beats buying a normal tank. What type of LEDs did you get? Aquastyle? RapidLED? Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Watch come bro. It could seriously hurt them. Link to comment
