They just need very stable water parameters, good hiding spots (all of the Centropyge angels that I found stayed hidden beneath or inside of the branches of acropora colonies), and algae in their diet. If you have all of these, they're easy. :)

And some1 mis-measured so only the tank fit in the car and you may have guessed it the stand was put on the roof of the car. Lemme tell yea driving on the highway with a huge stand on your roof is very stressful LOL everything made it ok though...thanks for lookin
That's all for now folks!
 
That stand looks great, but the design will be a headache. getting a 55 gallon in there will be hell, we might have to put the stand on top of it and then the tank on top of that! We'll figure it out though. I'm not speaking to you for the next nine hours out of jealousy over the $200 MP40. Come on!

Yes I got a bit of a deal on the MP and the stand will be a headache but it's nice looke aesthetically. So if my mom likes it I like it :P.

@smitty: I was waiting for the "this thread is useless w/o pics smiley" but in my defense there wasn't much of anything to take pics of :P
 
Lol...just messing with you. I'm glad you finally got it. I can just imagine how excited you are right now...I'm excited for you. :)
 
Well i got the baby wet tonite and decided to add some fish to it...snapped some pics...take a look:

Yes it seems very deep. I'll take the exact dimensions and edit this post. It'll be about 30 min. Its a 48x24x24 and upon further inspection I found a little gold logo that says oceanic :). And what do u mean shopvac?

The weekend after this upcoming one would be good so i can talk to my uncle about drilling the tank...then we could get some plumbing worked out and i might have some more equipment we could clean...just spit balling since im doin a big job wednesday and this weekend..but we'll have to figure out when i can pick up those lights

Friday and early Saturday would work for me
 
Friday (10 AM to Noon or 2 PM to 5 PM) works perfectly for me! Really, any weekday after 11:00 is grand. :)
