bummed out

well as many of you know Ive been tankless for some time now! Ive got the bug and drive but, finances are not allowing me to aquire a new setup. the plan was to get a 120 stand and canopy with my tax rebate but that fell through! Now Ive moved on to trying to sell my camera or trade it just to pick something up...so if anyone knows someone whos looking for one let me know....on a plus note kimberly has signed on with the local laborers union so money will free up a bit soon! so it will be a while before im on here everyday asking questions and such!

denis, sorry to hear about that. you must be itching bad...

if you want, you can "adopt" my new setup at my house. you can come over and visit with it and feed the fish and everything!!! just kidding, but seriously, i really appreciate the offer for all your help in my thread.

Mostly LPS mabye some softies !!! (for now) I think I will have a small zoo garden and lots of waving,flowing corals always been fond of brains and acans too. the options are limitless at this point but ive got time on my side...Ihavent figured out all of the fish yet but I know theres gonna be perc clowns and tangs!! Ive already sketched up a stand and canopy,,Live sand is comin from a couple breakdowns, lacking in the light department but Im having the tin knockers make up some stainless reflectors, Still have a skimmer No pumps...I still got a ways to go here, but its a start!!

UPDATE:::::::
Well the stand is 90% done! I just have to trim it out now.. I have aquired around 200 lbs of sand which is in the tank..gave me around a 4 inch sandbed.. Tomorrow morning I will start making water and should be cycleing by the end of the week..
for now we are doing a fish only tank..till some cash frees up then converting to a reef setup..gonna add rock slowly! is gonna be a long process but worth te wait!!
