Very nice, looking forward to seeing some pics.

I know you guys like pictures and I swear i'll try to get them up on Friday. I had free tickets to see There Will Be Blood tonight, so I went and wasted 2 1/2 hours of my life.

On another note I got an update on my tank. They are saying it should be here between Jan 29th and Feb 11th.

My tank made it in this weekend. Just waiting for the lights now.

That is a sweet tank!

Nice tank... I'm also in the process of setting up a 60 cube now. What do you plan on keeping in there?

AQTCJAK · 02-13-2008, 12:05 PM

It's going to be a mixed reef. Fish, mostly softies, and a few pieces of SPS.

Thanks for the advice. For now I'm just going to stick with the Rio. I had one on my last tank and 3 things I liked about it. Cheap, Low wattage, and it worked like a champ for over a year with no restarting issues. I've heard bad things about them and I've heard good things about them. If not for my past experience with them I would have gone with a Mag. If I end up having problems I'll switch with no hesitation.

I still use the Hyper Flow version of the Rios and I haven't any problems with them either.

xlayedoutx · 02-29-2008, 12:05 AM

Got my lights today. Looking to have the tank up Saturday evening.

Anselth · 02-29-2008, 12:14 AM

Nice sleek setup. Looking forward to your build, good luck!
