Welcome to the forums. I'll officially make the second request for pics of your tank.....it's like an addiction around here or something.

thank you all. as i am sorry i have no pics. don't have a camara that takes pictures that do my tanks justice. but i have been in the hobby for about 19 years. i have 150 g fresh water ( oscars, guramies, convicts, Electric blue jack demsy, and many others. it was the pride of my life , untill i was tricked into buying eels that were supposed to be non salt. was wrong and now i have a 90 g salt set up reef with clarky clown, fuzzy dwarf lion, yellow tail damsels, triple spot damsels, yellow spotted puffer, (brackish but doing great in full salt) coral beauty angel, and scooter. I have red cap mushrooms. pulsing xanthinas and many sea anenomes. running with an wishper tetra ex 45, Bak Pak bio filter/protein skimmer. and coralife 30" high output T5 dual lamp. i have also added a few led lighting designed for street car under glow. sealed and protected from salt damage. also custom built a wood top with power recepticals built in. sorry about the spelling. i spend more on my tanks than my computer.

:-D

Sounds very cool! Interesting about the underglo mods. I've never seen that before!

Also.. I think the only people who's pictures do their tanks justice are photoshop owners! It's difficult getting those images to look just perfect like they are in real life.

the deal was i could change it over after all the fish die of natural circumstances. instead we have a pair of convicts that are producing faster than the oscar can eat. sad isnt it?

We used to feed our big Oscar table scraps. That thing was a pig! I got the saltwater bug several years ago and converted everything we had. I bet you can find someone to take those fish off your hands so you can make the conversion. Lol

that would be great but violates the agreement. i also just aquired a tank 6' x 1'6" x 1'6". it is on a stand with custom cut plexy top two florecant lights. its beautifull. i cant find a sealant that i can trust. i love this hobby but i only have the money for what i have. i want to start a new buisness here that would take the worry out of finding an aquarium that fits their needs. also water conversions cleaning tear downs and setups. while finding their parts i might run across the parts i need. too bad its taking so long.

if i had just one extra set up i would be doing great. but money is to hard to find around here. i know that it is selfish and ignorant of me, but i dont work well with people. but i love to work and aquariums calms me down so why not. hey that annemome not the bottom pic showed up one day and started to split now i have 7 of them and dont know when they will stop. might be a problem might not. what do you think?
