SWEET! It seems that Spaz does some great acrylic work. I have never had the pleasure of seeing one in person, and I know I will never be able to afford one. Congrats to you though. Please keep us posted when you get this monster up and running. BTW You will love the Dart pump as a NW.

I do, planned on having the skimmer first but that didn't quit work out as planned as these large projects tend to. Nice meeting you at MACNA BTW.

The stand is made out of steele I-beams and the tank was made by James it's 4'x5'x27" w/ a coast to coast external overflow. But you're going to need to wait till I start my tank build thread for pictures.

Benjie, good thing Nancy is into the hobby otherwise she'd put you INTO that thing (which is bigger than both my tanks together I think).

Sara, for once I can't even think of a smarta$$ remark about your latest "adventure" in reefing. Imagine, me, speechless for once. LOL
