In due time my fishy friends... I am finalizing some details and will reveal the project soon.

"Patience" we Salties should understand that word very well!

SALTY WATERS Project

The Intro
Hello everyone,
To those of you who do not know me, I have been a proud member of this forum since Feb. 2005. I currently work in the Aquarim field specializing in SW system at my LFS. I have been in the SW hobby for over 5yrs, with a small brake since sping 2007 when I sold off my 20g w/15g sump Nano reef http://www.myfilestash.com/userfiles...oral%20010.jpg, to go on my 5 month EuroTrip... but now it's time to get back!

The Project
I am in the process of setting up a small scale in house frag operation. I could have easily set this up at a much lower cost by using ugly plastic tubs and cheaper lighting fixtures, however, being it will be located in my sitting room, I wanted to keep it esthetically pleasing to the eye... hence the overkill on everything! I also would like to keep it as an active reef with fish, inverts and the like, so I decided to go with the below to accomidate all my wishes
