Well unfortunately my wife is already trying to take control but I'm thinking if I sell the scoly it came with for 200 bucks then I will only be into this tank for 150 lol
Now we are almost there. I plug in all the equipment make sure we get up to temperature and the salinity is ok. I put the clown back into his fresh new/old home and that is how the mission impossible tank turned into the possible tank. I almost had it all set up before the wife got home but she...
I cleaned all the equipment and put this sexy mofo into the house. Loaded it up with some rocks from my sump and a new dry rock I had purchased on my way to Sacramento. Added in some sand and then water from the water change I had done earlier this afternoon aaaannnddd....
I do all the work empty the tank take out the scoly and clown and load up everything like I just robbed a bank. I get home clean out the tank then clean the glass with a razor blade...
Bam...he gets a response and gets his number... he middle man's the whole deal and says i can pick it up today at 5:30 like wt____. So I set off to go pick it up still unsure if the sale is going through as it seems too good to be true. I show up and there she is in all her glory...
I then tell my wife to message him... That's it a woman's touch will get this tank...reads message no response... I tell some of my friends to ask if it's even available...read messages no response. Another day has passes and I thank @SupraSaltyReefer for trying to help the search and he...
So after the tank is found its off to the races. I message the seller saying im going to be in sacramento that night for work and I can pick it up (where the seller is located). Then another message sent "I can put down a deposit and pick it up another day if tonight doesnt work" another read...
A little background to how the mission impossible tank came about. I had been on the look out for about two months to find what seemed like an impossible tank setup. After my continued sass of @SupraSaltyReefer to try and swindle his 15g innovative marine tank with white stand from him. He...

My build will hopefully be up today if the fish gods allow it lol this is a very generous offering. So I will comment "woe" now. Then I will add the "day" when its up and running lmfao
No all that was made sure of before water was put in. Even the ato next to it is safe. I will have to take a picture when I get home to put your mind at ease lol I'm on my way to pick up my budget build tank if all works out.
They are definitely a set above everyone else. One of the main reasons I steered away from waterbox. Anytime I had seen a waterbox stand it was always messed up and didn't seem to be constructed as well.
Yeah as you know the resources out here aren't the best. So It's great knowing more people out this way. If only we could get a good fish store in modesto we would be set lol.
