Just stopping by ....simply wonderful

Great job! Looks like everything worked out perfectly.

Looks awesome.
I also have a peninsula tank and love it. I'm still getting used to the 90 I bought which is a "normal" tank.
I love the fact that you can see most everything in the room divider. It gives you lots of options for coral placement but the aquascape can be a bit of a challenge. I have all of my LR in the center of the tank with lots of arches so you can see through to the other side.

I wouldnt ever do anything but a pennisula. Like you said it gives you a lot of options & more room. Im not done with the aquascaping yet. I did my first pennisula with a 55 & ordered a 48"x24" 120 a few days later. This tank is
72"x30". The 30" is a big help, I actually wanted 36" but wouldnt of been able to get the stand in the door.

Thanks Cheeks...Not normally, It turns green when mad. Kinda like the Hulk.

Left side of sump area, still not very organized.

Dude, if that's not very organized you are never allowed to look at my setup, LOL! I think your scissors are out of place,...maybe.

Everything looks awesome. Nice aquascaping! When we build our new house I've designed a peninsula tank between the living room and kitchen. I can't wait. I'm looking at yours for ideas!

ragvette · 12-30-2007, 07:14 PM

Very nice setup.

cioutlaw · 12-30-2007, 09:07 PM

JoJo · 01-16-2008, 09:20 AM

great job buddy. u made it seem so simple.

tbittner · 01-21-2008, 01:48 AM

DANG! ONE HUNDRED and SIXTY FOUR miles per hour in 1/4 mile??? I do believe you might be able to give Dentoid a run for his money.

And it's street legal? Boy oh boy, the fun I could have with people at red lights...

1.16 seconds to 60 mph.

UN-FREAKIN-BELIEVABLE!!!

I hope you don't REEF that fast.

You been to my website? LOL

the 1.16 was actually to the 60 foot mark of the track. Dont know the 0-60mph time but I would guess that is somewhat close.
