yeah... the top was an engineering nightmare for me... lol...


j/k...


i've never seen a top that did that, and i knew it could have been done... so i did it... i could take out live rock and everything without taking the top off... i just need to find out how to keep it up somehow...

Nice job! You geter done dude! Just saw Aquarium of the Pacific's large live reef tank and you just stay there and keep seeing more and more stuff. There was a 6 inch wide crab (with legs) eating some of the coral and I was thinking damn, get that crab out of there! Anyway, basket ball sized giant clams, 2-3 foot wide corals, and all came from seiziors (sp?) the state made at the border or something I was told.

I assume yours is gona look way nice after a while.
