Upstartreefer · Jan 6, 2018

Making sure the stand is fitting just right. At sooon as these below freezing temperatures are gone so the painting can be finished I can move the take in.

Thanks. I made one big mistake thou. I installed the stand then the sheetrock and forgot that the floor drain under the stand was still covered with tape. Lol. Hope I can pop the top of the stand off to get to it. It will not be fun if I have to take it back out.

Would you mind sharing the price on that tank? PM if you want. I'm in the process of looking at tanks right now and that's the size I want. Figure it's probably close in shipping to N. Mississippi and C. Alabama.

No problem. The tank, stand, and the 48x20x20 sump with shipping was $5047.

Everything about the experience with miracles was top notch. The build quality is excellent and are good people to do business with. In a few years I will definitely order in my wife's tank from him.

Thanks. The piping isn't going to go it the way I was planning it to i am dry fitting everything. Now that I am on here time for an update.

Upstartreefer · Feb 6, 2018

Quick update. Sorry it's has been a little while life getting in the way. Lol.

It took 6 of us to put the tank on the stand 2 more people would have been nice to have.

Tank has been leveled and waiting for the cover. The sump is in place and I am starting to dry fit plumbing.

Man the rain has really slowed everything down with our house. Now that the drive way is in were getting some work done.

Beautiful job! I've heard great things about Miracles, but haven't had the opportunity to view them first hand. Looks great! What's the plan for the tank? Mixed reef/fish list/etc?

Daltrey · Feb 25, 2018

Hello from another North Mississippian (Guntown). Awesome looking build so far. Maybe one day we can trade some coral frags.

My build so far.
