BigAl - The ceiling tiles were made from a company called "Armstrong" and are "acoustical, fire retardent" tiles made for a drop ceiling type set up. I had a few pics of the box on my photobucket but i did some house cleaning and they dissapeared, so these ones are the best i got. They are of the inside of my stand, and they really do a good job of shutting it up. Nikki said you made a cabinet for your skimmer, and i went through your build thread and saw the stand but i didn't see much detail, did you do anything to keep noise down at all? Any idea what pages of your build thread some better pics of this would be, i could go though all of them but 155+ pages is a bit of a time eater...lol.
The only thing with these tiles is they love to suck up moisture, imagine that. But i spray them with like chlorox bleach about once every two weeks to keep mold away, and about once every 3 months i rotate new ones into the stand, so it keeps it nice and clean under there.
Plecosword - Im thinking about getting 2-3 hippos because i like the schooling effect..J/K! If i can find a pair of them the purple fire fish are cool and would add that purple to the tank, but im going to wait til after christmas because ill have the cash then. So, the suggestions need to keep coming in people!
its going to be a fun week when you try.
