A new project

[Sean]

I'm setting up a new tank for a client.
It's a 270 gallon reef tank

Here?s the first picture of the aquarium

Custom cherry wood stand with metal trim
Custom acrylic tank
I just started putting corals and fish in it.
It's a great little system complete with all the bells and whistles

sweet.
I think I need to talk to you about making cabinets.
That's what I do, and I'd like to make some for fellow
reefers.

Sean, thats definitely a cool project! What did you do for an auto top off? What skimmer are you using for that system?

I have an in house custom cabinet maker If you come by my shop I could show you some of his work (he's excelent) took me years to find someone sorry I'm very happy with him but I'll keep you in mind If I get too much work for him to handle.

 

[jhale]

that must be a good acount if your the top off system

no problem, I'll just hope you get too much work.
in the meantime I'll update my site so you can see some of my more recent work.

That's really nice. What sort of corals are you going to place in it. Since you are going to put a Ca reactor on it, I am assuming SPS.

I always like the pictures of you in the tank. Too cool!!

You may eventually have to charge admission to "view" the tank. Will you give guided tours in the future?

I never knew you had a website just checked it out nice stuff I love the tables. Looks like gereat work. Nice trim on the cap of the fishtank.

I'm gonna try easy SPS's like montiporas and stuff but they like LPS's and softies cause they move with the current. But just in case they change there minds I have 3 400 watt pendants over it. heh heh heh.
