For months now (since Feb.) we (my gf and I) have been slowly piecing our 60 gallon tank together. This gave us months of practice on our 20gl long tank and hours on hours to read up and catch up on all the latest reef hobbyist info out there. Well the day finally came when we had all the pieces to finally put up our new prized baby. Plumbing was put together and test runs for leaks was done on the last week on September. After everything was checked and tweaked it was time to put the tank in place and fill it up with some RO/DI. I'll do these post in short specific threads to make sure no one gets bored and falls asleep with one book long thread. Next threads I will go into detail of my tank plumbing, equipment, and set-up. Live stock there after. followed by random responses to threads and updates about the new tank. Going to be a lot of after this weekend after I hit up RAP!!! See all my reefers out there and hope you like my thread and tank, Feel free to leave comments, suggestions, or w/e you fill like posting. all is appreciated.

Looks great! Love the feeling when you can finally start something you've been patiently building/saving up for. Will the tank be BB? I see caves and arches in your aquascape so nice job :)
