    Hi All, figured I would take a minute to introduce myself.
    I have been keeping fish on and off for about 10 years now, some fresh, some salt.  I relocated to the D.M. area about 2 years ago.  I am working on getting all my equipment compiled for a 20 gal cube reef I plan to set up in ~ a month once we (me + wife + son +2 dogs)  get moved into our new house.  I have mostly everything major, but am on the hunt for some LR, and LS. I also need to have my tank drilled, so if anyone know a place local let me know!

    Nik: I stumbled upon matts post lastnight. I am going to try and make it over that way. As far as size goes, I forget what size bulkheads I need exactly to cover flow rates, but they likely will not have to be very large because of the small size of my tank. If anyone has a bit I could borrow or wants to help my drill my tank I can pay in cash or beer!!

    I am sure you could work something out with Matt, He a good guy. I also do not think the bits are expensive.

    Thanks JB!

    I didn't end up making it to Matt's on Saturday, ended up leaving early to head to KC to visit family.
