      Could not have a skin on it I'll build the skin later next week after I finish plumbing it. And I haven't decided what I'm going to stock it with and of how many. But i will be ordering another mp60 for this tank

          What kind of sand/rocks? I like torpedo beach sand but that's my personal taste. For rocks I will go with white river boulders.
          Are you planning use the canopy with the vho lights?

              Well the sand I will be using is aragonite. I have about five hundred pounds of the stuff so I'll put it to good use. And for the rock I will be using white river boulders. And last for the cap I might use the lights but I will defiantly have to rebuild the canopy so to give me more access to the tank

                Well I made a decision on the overflow I'm breaking out the drill bit and acrylic tools going to drill a couple holes in each side and make my own external overflow boxes. I want a clean look and if I hang a overflow box over the perimeter brace that will look like $ht.

                    Have not drilled it yet I need to make the boxes first then decide were to drill the holes been working on Andrew's canopy. I got most of the tank scraped down and I'm working on rinsing it out. Rinsing made easy when you hook up a 1 1/4 drain hose to one of the bulkheads and rinse everything out the drain! Should drill later on this after noon

                              First of all nobody wanted to see Darbex shirtless and in shorts in his tank but we were subjected to that. And trust me I've got the pic and there is nobody I mean nobody that wants to see me in my tank. Trust me

                                If you are shirtless than I do not want to see it. Thank you for sparing us the trauma. Next time you fill it I will bring my bathing suit and come by for a swim. You can take a pic of me under water.
