I didn't look at anything. As bad as I want one, it's not gonna happen anytime soon...
I can see why it sold so fast, they're all stunning.

No, it did the typical wrasse thing and zoomed away into the cave on the left. I saw him out and about around 30 mins ago but wasn't quick enough with the photo.

I was thinking, and you know what you need red? A thread like Carey has so we can see all your tanks, the 40b, and the 2 20's? If I remember, since you sold the peninsula 40b.

Operation clown goby rescue!!

That's a good idea, but unfortunately I'm down to just the 10. Broke down both the 20s and sold most of the corals to an lfs that was re- opening their frag tanks, and gave the rest to a buddy. The 40 lives on intact at another buddies. Landlord isn't letting us sign a 3 month lease so we'll have to move in with family for a couple months before the new house is ready and 1 tank is all I could talk them into . I've started ordering equipment for the big build though, so it's not all bad news

Thats sucks, those systems were absolutely amazing. Hopefully all the corals was worth a lot of money, and the tanks are intact. The big tank is good news. More space, more fish, more fuzzy sticks .

What size tank is the big build going to be again?

Yeah i haven't done the math, but I came out with probably triple what I put in from the corals. And got pretty good prices on my used equipment. Actually if this guy keeps procrastinating on me, I've got 2 reefbreeders value units I could sell you for pretty much shipping Mac, so I'll let you know here in a few days.
The new tank is either going to be a 3.5' or 4' cube but only 16" tall, and I'm really toying with the idea of a center pipe overflow system so I could set it up like an island in the middle of the room. Only problem would be wires, not sure how to hide those yet...

Where would you put them? And you've already got sexier versions of the fuzzy sticks, and of course your rare teal blue euphie morphs . And those tanks were zoa haters so nothing there either :P

I will be waiting, you guys are the best. I'll make sure to pay you back in some Aussie acans or fuzzy sticks later .
I'm looking forward to your new build.
After seeing the pictures of all your tanks, there's no way it could be bad. Cubes are always very cool tanks. As for the wires. You could box out an area of the tank that would be dry, and run them down into the the stand through a hole in there.
