      Nice stand. I assume you'll add in the piece in the middle shortly?

      Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

            Yup - New Oceanic (and heavy!)
            He is going to use a 2262 and 2217 I believe.

                      Are you doing a homemade CO2 reactor for such a large tank?

                      I've done it from my 90s and like it a lot more than the dupla reactor that I previously used.
