I'd trim the caps, chalices take a while to settle again after you move them.

That's a fun choice. Can u say coral trading time!

..........reefing. not for the faint of heart.
 
Can't wait to see the pics, Willie. Your tank is looking AMAZING! I hope that one day I can get an awesome one like that. :/ need to get JJ to give me a pay raise so I can start fueling the habit. I can't wait to get started. Everyone here is giving me uber inspiration.

Don't get hooked on those drugs; you put yourself at the mercy of he who sets the price! Sugar can be addictive too.... :D

JJ,give this young lady a raise,charge extra for non RS members to cover the extra few hundred a week :D

Princess,thank you for the compliments...I know exactly what you mean about inspiration,with the help and guidance of folks here,I feel like I can take on anything reef related now...I mean,I have a wooden box that holds water,anything is possible,right ? :D

the main reason I even tried a plywood tank was because of a long time member here, http://www.reefsanctuary.com/forums/reef-chronicles/31112-vargas-300-gallon-wall-build.html ,he,among a long list of others here,guided me in my build and not one time did anyone complain about all the goofy questions I ask :lol:

I did go offsite and learn all I could about building plywood tanks,and I think I could have even helped Noah build the ark now :lol: my true inspiration came from Varga's build and all my reefing knowledge came from here.....

although,I have strayed out into the cyber reefing world and spread the wealth of knowledge that I've acquired here with other less fortunate reef forums,I always return to where it all started for me,right here at Reef Sanctuary,this is home for me and as you are well aware now,the people here are the best :D

I can't wait to see what you build for yourself,I know with JJ and all of RS behind you,you'll build an awesome reef

Don't get hooked on those drugs; you put yourself at the mercy of he who sets the price! Sugar can be addictive too.... :D

too late Ben,I'm already hooked on sugar,I even drink diet Coke just so I can eat more sugar filled goodies :lol:
