[mkpaulson]

future plans consist of adding a better circulation system. I will be putting in a oceansmotions 8 way system,and more lighting 3x250w mh.with icecap ballasts. but this will have to wait until the the first of the year.

It looks like a nice looking set up for Softies. Very well done Mark. My friend will love looking at your stand for inspiration for his new stand. Thanks for sharing.

Mark, Good Job, really nicely done!! I like the way you did the stand with the cut in 2x4s and the counter sunk screws. How do you like your life reef filtration system? My friend is seriously considering one for his 240 gal tank. If you would, can you post more pictures of it and your experince with it. I think from reading that it should be awesome. Though there is nothing like the experince of someone who has used it, to tell you how it will work. Thanks Steve

I am really not pleased with the left-hand side either but I have some more Live rock in my old tank that I'm presently cooking and then I will be adding some of it to this tank so i would like to make some changes on that side in the future.

I love my life reef filter system if i had to do over again I would, this system came with everything you needed to set it up. hoses, clamps, Teflon tape, all sorts of thread on connectors to set it up, I didn't need to make one trip to the hardware store. jeff at life reef was a pleasure to work with spent a lot of time on the phone with me to find out what I had and what my need were. I will try to find another pic of my filter system for you.

lol nikki he's like a bull in a china shop, that fish does not stop for one minute I get tired just watching him. if you had a lot small frags in your tank it would probably knock down every one of them! thank you everybody for all the kind words and positive feedback.

Wow is that coralline all over the bottom of the tank? You Mandarin is gorgeous and plump. I had trouble keeping Mandarins before but my Spotted now seems to be doing great. Great looking set up.
