Re: ~Woody's 120 Escapade~

Thanks Dave and Dave!

Lisa just left with my coralline encrusted 90 gal setup. It was very nice meeting you and your family! When you and Dave come down to pick up my 120, we'll have to visit a few LFS. LOL~

I can verify the coloring... LOL. I have seen it and it indeed was that brown, if not darker

Seriously though... Doni has done an amazing job. The tank looks amazing, even though it is not scaped "properly" yet in her opinion. It is definitely a great looking setup. I think the blue background was a great choice. The look of it with the lights is spectacular.

GREAT JOB WOODSTOCK!!!

Thanks, BTW for your hospitality! Next time I'll leave the party pooper home and we will go SHOPPING!

Thumbs up Aquascaped!!

It took me only 2 hours to complete... not too bad.

Before shot..


First thing was to remove the corals (except for the aggressive euphyllias)


New base rock to add


Ready for some changes!


Right side finished!


Left and right side finished!


Added corals


More pics of course when it clears up. I need to get some super glue gel and 2-part epoxy to secure a few of them. I also need to glue my orange zoa mat (huge) and my GSP mat (huge) to the overflows.

Thanks for looking!
