    So funny about the video speed....I made it faster because I was afraid no one would watch the whole thing and bail on it...lol. I'll see if I can change the speed and re-post.

    Oh yeah...i have total access still. he connected the doors to each other with a piece of 1x4. I need to get something to fill in the gaps between the doors on the top so you don't see light bleeding thru.

    Thanks Mike. There are actually three doors on each side but the three are connected together so they all open at the same time. I was lucky enough to find this guy and turns out he's originally from NJ. He definitely exceeded my expectations.

    Discussing Phosphate Removers

    Im using the NatureReef Reactor and love it. Its definitely an investment but I dont have the headaches associated with the cost of gfo, replacing it or the worry of replacing too much at once and stripping the nutrients out of the water. Since my new tank has been up and running, I've only...

    LOL....no shipping yet! Hey Mike, I started cycling the natureef right around I the same time I filled the tank and it took a couple of weeks for it to be ready for daily flushes. My tank has been running almost 3 months and I've only done 3 wc's (2 @ 10% and 1 @ 5%). My no3 has been 5 ppm...

    Thanks for the kind words Paul. I sped up the slide show transition because originally it was close to 8 mins....I didn't think anyone would want to sit thru 8 mins of my slides....lol.

    This was my wife's suggestion and after thinking about it, it made sense. Allowed me to put the uv on the side, easier to do the plumbing and put my electronics/ballasts on the other side.

    Yeah each side will have doors on it so I can access the sides of the tank. The cabinet maker just moved down here from Patterson. He knew exactly what I wanted when I started to describe it to him. Other local guys could only say "you want a what to go around a what???""

    Charlotte is a good city for financial services banks. It would leave you with plenty of options. More importantly, the reeding community is huge there and there's a big club not far over the state line in SC.

    My property taxes are 1/6th of what they were in NJ. I bought a bigger house, on a bigger piece of property for 25% less than what I sold my house in NJ. And the best part is they are going to do away with state income tax!!! Plus it's November and I'm still wearing shorts and swimming!

    Thanks guys! It took me a lot longer to get everything built than I had planned. Working in a garage, in SC during the summer is not fun! Temps in my garage would get over 100 degrees by 11 am so I would have to knock it out little by little. Thanks Judeo! Anyone who wants to take a road...

    I realize Im not as active on here as I was when I lived in NJ but some members have been asking for pictures and information about my new build. Instead of posting individual pictures I thought it would be easier to just create a slide show. Here's a little info about my system.... *...
