    well its about time to start planning a tank tour so everyone can show off there MACNA goodies
    I was thinking of doing it SAT october 15th maybe a 10 or 11 start time hows does this sound to people?
    and also if you would like your tank on the tour let us know
    I will be showing my little fish bowl off  people can see my led DIY lighting in fact by the 15th i will be completly switched to led lighting on all my reef tanks.  also if you dont mind a messy garage you can check out my 300 plywood tank i built  hopefully i will have it in the house and running by spring

    I might have to give that a try. Seems a little pricey but maybe it will be worth it. Have you used one?

    I think we can wait. Besides, I have not been able to get ahold of Kirk(Central Campus) yet (he just moved and is busy I am sure). Also, Bud is putting a nice tank together this week-end.....

    yeah I'll be putting it 'together' meaning I'll be putting the tank on the stand!!! I have no idea when I will actually get a chance to move everything, I haven't even finished building the sump yet.

    Good luck to you Matt & Ninny!
