When are the corals arriving?

 

[gimmito]

Corals are in the frag tank. I bought 1" aluminum angle iron to make the light rack, I have a order for 4 pairs of single point hangers (to hang the fixtures), & I bought a used Geo 818 CaRx that should be arriving any day that need to be hooked up. Anybody have advice to hook up the Geo 612 CaRx for the frag tank ?

It might be Minn. I've seen your posts in reef frontiers

 

[Kensington Reefer]

Yes!

 

[gimmito]

LOL...you mean Bill ? That dude is simply crazy. I've never someone with such skill as him, to build a 20,000 gal tank (and soon 60,000 gal)+ own skimmers, reactors, etc. is plain nuts.

He makes my 450 gal look like a nano.

He told me he's coming down in December to visit the Steinhart...I should book him to speak on "How to build your own aquarium in your house" lol.
