Thanks! Of course it will be sanded smooth and a nice finish, but will look 100+ years old....

Here's a couple of the test pieces ....

Dude that thing is SICK

I still want to stop over and sit in the chair

I stole the skimmer off my other system to get it on the new tank and start transferring things over.... I always forget how big this thing is till I have to move it!

And man was it dirty! It had aiptasia growing on it which was part of a problem in my last system.... So I grabbed some 35% peroxide from a hydro store.... Those suckers were sizzling like bacon.... FYI wear a restporator if u decide to do this,... The peroxide is really strong and was burning my eyes and nose... I had to stop and put one on.... Gave me some anxiety!

Here it is running in 8 gallons of vinegar ... I had to add some water to it cause I didn't have enough.... I think it should be fine right ....? Only muratic acid becomes hydrocloric acid when water is added right?

Well more to come .....

How's this for a favia? .... My raptors peace, angel eyes, grape wrath, and I think baby's breath... ? I can't ember them all but they all grew together and have been living in harmony for the last year.... However I separated them today.... Here's a pic...

This is more of a bigger mouth favia I guess u could say? I'm not really sure what it is I bought it at a swap a year or so ago and it's held this intense color ever since.... Pics are all under radiums ...
