Emotional support coral loophole? Yes if needed to go that far. Lol 🤣 It’s 32. Oz is the maximum allowable liquid that can be carried onto the plane only if it’s needed to keep an animal alive (aka your emotional support coral) 1 2 Quote Link to comment
748S911 Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 Like this tank really needs another light. Moved over my contest Pico mounted AI Prime HD at angle so lights up my right side of tank. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Wonderboy Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Wow! Awesome start! Exceptional job with the silicone removal - I did the front panel of my 2.5 and was like that's enough stress for today! I can't wait to see things grow in here :] 1 1 Quote Link to comment

You'd never guess that this tank wasn't rimless to begin with. Looks super clean. Every time I look at a pic I always think "he's got a bit of space for things to grow in, that's for sure." 😄 1 1 Quote Link to comment

748S911 Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 So I tried to add a link to both tanks and this keeps coming up, how do I fix it? I just want a black underlined link. Quote Link to comment

ef4life Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 So is the white insert siliconed in or is it just a tight fit in the glass? Quote Link to comment

I just want a black underlined link. When you add the link, N-R automatically converts it to this format. However, at the bottom of the window, there will be an option to make it a regular text link. 1 Quote Link to comment

Drop in and have a little room on each side. Really pleased with it, I have all my chaeto, marine pure, and miracle mud in there now. I still have to get a nozzle for return and haven't decided on return pump yet. 6 hours ago, seabass said: Happy Birthday!!! When you add the link, N-R automatically converts it to this format.

If not I have black aquarium sealant on hand, but im terrible at sealing aquariums even with the blue tape it always looks janky lol. 2 Quote Link to comment
