I also am from Louisiana, Bogalusa is my city, though I dont usually claim it. Dont have any tank pics to show as Im right in the middle of my build up, but I have a few sketchups to share.
This is the plan, I have deviated from this just a bit, but for the most part this is how it will be in the end.
Got the sump/fuge built and running
Tank is drilled and painted
Stand is getting skinned, and has been raised 10 inches to allow for a better viewing angle.
Added fans to the MH 400w ballast box, it got hot, and now it doesnt.
The RODI and storage tank setup in my shop bathroom.
A few more details I have a 15 gallon QT tank that will be setup along with the 55, and I have 100lbs of portland cement and 75 lbs of rock salt waiting to be made into DIY live rock.
So far this seems to be a nice place. Just like the other guys, I was shows this site from the post your favs thread on another Louisiana reef forum. :tongue:
