I don't know if it is but I got a great deal on it. I had a good bit of credit at my LFS and ended up paying only $48 out of pocket lol
Its still a ways out to have water in this guy. I was considering putting it in my office but since I'm moving soon I might just put it in the new apartment.

Thanks!

My main issue with this build is going to be sourcing out the candy bass... but since the wait is around 1-1.5 months it might work great with the time frame.
I'm excited

Picked up my ATO, a ton of glue, some sand and some bottled bacteria(I think its a crock too but I figure it doesnt hurt) and only paid $14. Sending stuff back to the LFS works. Idk where I would be without my local shop lol.
I'm considering adding a ghost protein skimmer on this and doing a pump upgrade.

BTW I'm putting some neon green toadstool or nepthea in there, those things are cool as heck

Just be careful of chemical warfare ...sometimes it can be bad for sps I never had a problem but I got rid of it nevertheless ..I'd imagine you want a cleaner look but the aquamaxx hob is a beast for smaller tanks as the ghost skimmer is useless really
