HOB for now even tho I dont want to as I dont have another tank to drill or use temporarily and cant drill the current one with livestock in it.

Boy is it that time already? My tank is now a year old and it has come a long way, through losses and gains, lessons and mistakes, and upgrades.....lots of upgrades. I used to be sump less and now, well im not. I run an eshopps r-100 sump with a skimz sn127 skimmer, 2 100w cobalt aquatics neo-therm heaters, and kessil h80 for my cheato fuge, I also have a Milwaukee Ph controller. Ive also taken the journey into SPS and that has led me to Kalkwasser dosing and adding another kessil a360we for total overkill on a 20g, I haver a poor Green Birds nest that has taken the brunt of my learning but is now recovering. Enjoy the update pics!

Lol what one the orange or green?

 

[Mandrew]

The whole thing lol. I've been trying to find one for a while now that's not too expensive but no luck.. [emoji27]

 

[Evan West]

Are you looking for orange or green? Lol

 

[Evan West]

This is the place I got my orange and green torches, he is by me so I go there and pick stuff out but he has the standard fair shipping of like 40 bucks.

Well I'm in MI as well so maybe shipping would be cheaper!

 

[Mandrew]

Or I could drive there lol

 

[Evan West]

Or I could drive there lol

I just drive, faster, cheaper, safer for coral and you get to see it in person when you pick it out. You need to call them before you go in tho.

I believe @CherryCorals has $20 shipping in Michigan and most of the surrounding areas. That said, its worth a visit - but bring more money than you want to spend Todd & Brett do not disappoint. I make the drive from Grand Rapids about 2-3 times a year.
