    I Got a Droid X and I got to finish my fish room just to discover that now it is all sealed in that now it overheats and gets to 90 Degrees! So now I have to run the air conditioner in the fish room even in the Winter! WTF? But at least the humidity in my living room is now back to normal.

    that sucks :-\ new job has me busy most of the time so I haven't been able to keep tabs on your progress. I'm thankful that I'm just going from a 29 to a 75 though at least, because god I couldn't imagine where I would find the time to get an entire fish room done like you have... I'm just trying to finish up the bottom of my stand lol

    I lost quite a bit of SPS, but still have an decent assortment of livestock for the new tank. It's still going to feel like I'm starting over.

    I paid $192 shipped:

    Part# 100-304-C: 12 each) 3-way composite Tee connectors @$4 = $48
    Part# 100-300-C: 4 each) 2-way composite Elbow connectors @$3.75 = $15
    Part# 100-130-8: 3 each) aluminum 98" long, single fin (this holds the Lumenbright pendants in place) @$18.75 = $56.25
    Part# 100-102-8: 2 each) black powder coated steel 8' tubes @ $23.40 = $46.80 Part# 100-102-8
    Shipping $26.42

    I'll have to cut these and will use my compound miter saw with a carbide tipped blade to do so.

    You're definitely not far behind my schedule... I went ahead and swapped my livestock over finally (well most of it, some of the corals I had to get some frags off the old live rock and call it bust on the rest really since I didn't want any of that rock in my tank) I'm a sump, aquacontroller, dosing pumps and reactors away from being complete finally.. just waiting on an order from BRS.

    How's your livestock holding up in the vats? I think I remember the leather being lost, but have you had alot of other colonies go south too?

    How are the prices on the EZ tube stuff, if you don't mind. Their online catalog doesn't seem to work

    Is it Cast?

    Actually no, I don't know what it is. It feels like hardened plastic like the feeding troughs. And yes, I'd like to get stuff in the tank by the end of the year. It's not absolute since today is the 27th, but it would sure be nice.

    Interesting shims...do you know what the composite material is? The really good news is that the stand is up off the floor, and therefore you have broken the electrical and corrosion link, at least in some measure. Now all you have to worry about is the rigidity of the stand!
