Well, everyone just little over two weeks left and I will be home and ready to tackle my new tank.

Though today I got some very discouraging news from the builder of my tank. They told me that the way I had my tank designed for th CL wouldn't work, and that many holes in the bottom would stress and crack over time.

Of course I thought that all along, but they assured me they could do it, so I went with it, because I really did want starphire. So, I have to go Acrylic not all is lost there are great things about acrylic as well, just hate the idea that it scratches so easily though.

So, now my tank wont be starphire, but instead acrylic. Just thought I would keep everyone informed. Also in about 3 weeks I will start posting picture of the setup and all.
