| Yeah i do, ill post them up tonight, its your basic sump tho, since i had a limited amount of plexiglass.
Tre-Will do, because i have heard you can ruin everything by putting the wrong fish in first, thinks the whole tank is it territory and bugs other fish to no end.

| if u want a mandarin u need to wait a minimun of 6 months and have around 80lbs of live rock and a fuge ... even then its questionable since it will prolly wipe out your pod population in no time
IMO id skip the royal gramma

| Yeah, the mandarin is far off, like in a year if we even do. and ill be gone in 5 months, so i would rather not have my dad have to deal with feeding them. Ill have to look into the gramma, i love the colors, but they are semi aggressive...

| Update!
SO i got my Koriala's in yesterday(#2 and #3) along with my AquaC Remora. I am loving the flow tht those powerheads put out! beats my little maxijet 250 by a landslide, the tanks seems that much more active now. Remora is working beautifully, i love it, its pulled out some nasty stuff. And i rescaped it a bit, im too indecisive, but i think this might work, may change it a little bit, dunno, but so far i like it. I should be getting 10 astreas today, maybe. well see. anyways, heres the pic, not the best tho, i was in a hurry
Enjoy!

| Nice nice...thats a great looking sump. You're putting naughty thoughts into my head, now i'm gonna have to spend money and make an acrylic sump.
WTB = want to buy. Internet slang for the win.

| woops. lol i love working with acrylic, you look around and everything you see can be made out of a shiny professional looking box, like a ballast cover for my pond uv ballast. its endless, and you have the tools to do it, so why not? One thing i want to mention is during sump construction, use CD cases as spacers for your baffles and what not, they really are great help.

| Good idea with the CD cases. Did you just use a normal electric saw (table saw?) to cut it to size or was it custom cut? And where did you find an acrylic bonding agent. I want Weld-on 4 but hardly anyone carries it and that stuff is like impossible to ship being a Hazmat.
