Great snag. I saw that the big colony of blue w/ red ring around mouth acans were still there so had to get them, normally dont like the dark colors, but the piece you got and the acan from the other day are awesome. I'm in crazy mode right now. I could spend another $500-600 and still fit more lol or so I keep telling myself ;)

As much as I love to see the parent colony... I prefer to get the frags... not only because of costs, but the challenge of getting them to grow out like their parents... probably the most addicting part of the hobby to me.. and driving me to want a shallow glass frag tank really bad :D

looking for the like button... oh yeah... this isn't facebook.... my wife... not so on board... we have identidal twins in the oven.... she thinks it would cost too much.... Carlos says he can get me a 24x24x12 for 120... and I could do MH used from discount for pretty cheap... even free if I fragged my monti... but I really want to play with some LEDs

I have it somewhat planned out how to keep my water the correct temp but will need to wait til summer to verify my plans. No heater, no chiller ;)

Ummmmm how?:neutral:
Lol, I figure if I plumb it to my current tank inside and insulate the PVC between tanks, I can then run constant water thru the pipes to keep the temp stable. High water flow and no dead zones should ensure stable temps.
If it does start to get too hot, I have a couple other plans to put into action to stabilize the water temp ;)

Been working on the plans for about 4 months now lol

Going to see Carlos this afternoon, bout 1-1:30ish if anyone wants to roll over there. ;)

On a side note, check out this bad boy I'm getting with my two LEDTRiC iNSPIRE units that are ordered and soon to be on their way....... Lower frag is mine but might get other one too ;)
