i got Dry marco Rock from marcorocks. its awesome rock and nice shapes and you can do allot with it. cause its gonna fully cycle anyways before we add any of the 65G stuff to it.
also the base rock i like cause its funky Shapes. i was gonna do BRS Reef saver rock but i figure i would save a buck and go this route. i still need to get 200lbs of sand............. so much to do and i want to get it up and running already!
still gotta build the Sump... witch is a 40B gonna be Custom i think by Us, if not then we shall buy one lmbo.

also a update on the Coral route we might be taking, not too sure but its in the AIR. we might be going LPS heavy Chalices/Acans/torches hammers ect. as well as ZOA heavy. with just a select few SPS. but we dont no forsure yet.
still have to buy another fixture but that depends on the route we are going to take. i want to get a ATI 8-10Bulb if we are gonna stay SPS heavy, but we shall see. If not i just need to get one more it2040's and call it a day. so much to think about.

finally got soem pictures up of the rock. Granny is finally home as of today.
This MARCO rock is amazing. the marine depot aquamax rock is nothing compared to this rock... i bought 40lbs of aquamax rock from marine depot got like 7 pieces MED size.. thought i was gonna get some nice pieces but i guessed wrong. i cant wait to get mroe rock from MARCO rock. the amount of rock i got as well as the shapes and how nice the rock was, i am amazed with this rock. got around 30 pieces. and big suckers at that
average size is about 8-10" biggest is 12"
I wrapped the rock back up and put it in the box. Nothing is being done right now besides buying stuff for the tank till we are able to get all the sand and the water in it to cycle.

yea thats what im thinking. But then i have to make sure the skimmer i wanna buy will fit. cause we are gonna do a refuge in the sump area. i told her no but she wants it anyways, also i think im gonna be going T5s on this tank. maybe another 8bulb ATI sunpower. we might be going LPS heavy on this tank after the x-fer most of the acros will be going in the shallow tanks.
