Are you planning to stock up more on SPS once this build is done? I sent you a PM ages ago, summer maybe, when I discovered that you had pulled all the acros off your website. You have (or had?) Quite the nice collection of SPS when I visited you last year and I was shocked to see that section of your website empty! I figured you either: had a tank downturn (which it sounds like you did from the posts on your other thread); or were selling frags faster than you were growing; or just decided to focus on growing out your display tank colonies and give your personal collection a break from being fragged.

Either way I'm excited to see what the future has in store!!! (pun intended lol)

Hey Phil,

I did have a bit of a tank meltdown and lost majority of my colonies. A number of variables were likey the reason for it, but I am not 100% which one. This system will have a dedicated SPS system (the 10' DT and the x2 7' tables). These tanks will just be for SPS. I will be briging in wild Aussie Acro/INdo shipments when the systems are ready to go. The other side of the system will be for LPS, Z and P and all the rest.

Looks great but why not put all the plumbing under ground and did you add an extra floor drain or two?!?! Had to ask because I'm a plumber
If you really wanna go the distance id add a back flow preventor
Who knows what would happen with the water supply living by defastco

I would hope that ripping out the old furnace is what started this reno!

He told me he lost one of his cats, banged on his chest chanting "I'm coming for you" and just started tearing shit apart.

The cat was just having a nap on his pillow, not so lucky for him as he has pink eye now.
