I finally finished the stands and pretty much one canopy, so I was able to move the smaller tank into the house! I've already mixed new saltwater in the 50, and it's now sitting there with some good flow to really reach equilibrium before I plumb it into the existing 55 by adding another return to the sump. Is there anything I should consider as far as shocking my main tank beside temp and salinity? It's the same salt I already use so think of it as a massive water change reservoir sitting next ...

I'm still building my combo 90/50 system with 2 stands that will come together to look like 1, and I'm ready to build the canopies. The tanks are on the stands and the frag tank is running in a water/vinegar bath to clean it up a little. I also decided to run my older powerheads in the vinegar bath while I was at it, and my Koralia 3 was one of them. I thought I shook everything out, but once I put it in the vinegar water out came 15 pods, 5 asterinas and one mini brittle star. Needless to say ...

I'm upsizing from my 55, and I thought I was going to get a 150 or so, and it would have a frag area in it. I came across some great deals though, and I ended up with a 90 and a 24x24x20 (50 gal) for a total of $100 and a few frags. I'm building two stands for them that will link together and look like one, and then the 90 will be a reef and the 50 a frag tank.

I'm going to use my current 55 as a sump with a separate return to each tank and glass baffles added for a skimmer and fuge. ...

So I'm in the process of building my stands for my 90 and 50 that will come together, and I decided to bring the frame for the 90 into the living room to check level in it's final spot. Turns out I needed to put a little bit of a shim under a corner to keep it from rocking about a sixteenth to an eighth of an inch, so I thought I'd glue it under there before taking it back out to the garage. Well, the gorilla glue had some dried glue in the tip and I just couldn't get it out. So what do I do? ...

OK, so I've had this multi stage plan going on for a while now, and it's finally starting to take shape. I had a 50" 1080p TV that I was ready to replace with one on the wall, and use the old one to trade for a bigger tank than my current 55 reef. The only catch was that I had to sell a car that had been sitting in my driveway for 20 months to buy the new TV. Well, I put the car up for sale and got a buyer THAT NIGHT! So the next day I get the new TV, and now have the trade bait ready to ...
