    Hello everyone. Getting ready for the move this summer and planning ahead.
    Looking for:
    36" (36watt) actinic or similar really blue T5 bulbThree submersible heaters good for 50g or moreBuckets- if you have the kind with the sealable lid that would be great, I think reef crystals and instant ocean use to or do sell their salts in these.Moving boxes- the more the merrier. I know my mother in law is going to be getting some from work so, if she gets a lot, I might not need anymore but thought I'd put it out there
    And just as a curious side note, does anyone have a nifty trick for hiding buckets? I don't have much storage space in an apartment and will have more trouble hiding my stuff at the new place with the bigger, more open living room. I really don't like the look of all my stuff just siting on the floor next to my tank. Anyone have any suggestions for hiding it? I was thinking about making a window sill bench thing that has a curtain hanging across the front to hide storage underneath but I'm open to other suggestions /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif
    If there is anything else you have that you think I may want, feel free to post it here /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif

    4 buckets of the same size plus lids + one piece of tempered glass = coffee table!
    Easy access to them when you need them, too.

    I was thinking the same thing about a table.... you could do a plywood top and a tablecloth or fabric over it and then you are open to all kinds of stacking options with the buckets underneath.

    I'm thinking more along the lines of building a window bench with a soft cushion top and a curtain hanging across the front hiding an open storage area underneath it. I usually have some sort of project each summer and I think this might be it seeing as my stand and canopy are already made /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/tongue.gif In the meantime though, a tablecloth setup may be better than nothing /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif

    I can help you out with buckets and a tub to use for your move. Will dig around for a couple heaters as well. Shaun
