    Thanks guys!

    That does look like some good nectar Chas... What do you think shipping on 12 bottles would be to 40342?

    I'm going to start plumbing the sump in tonight, Lowe's is a scheduled stop on the way home from work today... That gift card I got in my Xmas stocking is already coming in handy!

    Did some plumbing on the new sump last night, just got everything mocked up for now - I'll glue it all later once the tank's in place.

    Me too, now I've got to figure out where I'm gonna put it, inherited another pet that requires a 55 that came with the it, the sump was gonna go where he's at, but he got that chunk of real estate, it'll come to me though

    As long as your making room... I hear that Deathie knows where there's a real good deal on a new 90!!!

    What kind of new pet did you get BTW? I'm guessing some sort of reptile.

    Re: The Metal 180 build

    I'm impressed with the knowledge you guys have. I wouldn't know where to start with all that plumbing and sump talk...Maybe someday i'll get to your level. As for now I'm barely starting up my lil 75 gallon....it's as big as your sump lol.
    New Setup in progress. 75 Gallon reef.....still trying to figure out what I need. Your help is much appreciated.

    Thanks guys!

    I have to go away to a wedding this weekend so it will probably be a week or two before the new tank's up and running. I recieved my acrylic scratch repair kit and some eductors from Premium Aquatics today so that won't be holding me up but my truck broke down yesterday which will also set me back if/when I can ever figure out what's wrong with it.

    Just when you think things are going your way,Newtons law. I hope the repair isn't costly.
