HI all
I would like to have another Tank tour That maybe covers Metro west area, if not too far maybe, other towns too,
I am not sure on a day yet most likely be a Sunday due to our work load would like to see if theres any interest out there,
I would like to show our new 180, maybe hit up a few LFS :) depending on the day could also do lunch or snacks along the way.
thanks
steve

There was others I believe we did not make to there house.Kiahs was the first stop :) how can you not stare at her tank for hours,

tank , I wounder if I post this in another thread others might be interested might even be not good time for some ,
you know who has a nice tank I hear skydolphin;) we were going to see hers last year think we ran out of time,
I believe Michele Kiah wanted to be a last stop of the day if we are going to do this she always has frags available,
ooh how about we could add on a frag trade .
hmm I don't know Sara over 100 views nobody interested must be alot of skiers out there

My tank is nothing special, and my apartment is too small to fit any more than 2.5 people lol, otherwise you would all be more than welcome to come.
I would however love to come check out the other tanks in the area if that's possible...

I'm interested, for sure. I'd love to see some tanks.
Though I wouldn't say my young tank is worthy of a trip over here.

Can do my tank again as it is a different one this time if you come out this way. Only been up for about 7 months so still very new but could give some plumbing or aquascaping ideas.

I'm in! New to the area, starting my 180 up again. I'd like to do the "silent drain" mod to my AGA reef kit but haven't seen anyone's tank who's done it. I've got 2 Tunze 6100/7095, a wavebox, and a Vortech...3 PFO mini 250's (and a couple of 400's on ReefOptix for now), VHo's, a 40G fuge/sump and a 50G rubbermaid rock sump...trying to piece it together. Would love to see other people's tank setups...

Tough for me to commit to anything until the last minute, these days.
No way my tank is worth a stop on the tour.

Nicole,
I would be more than happy to show my tank. Very small, and still pretty new - but it is a bare bottom and perhaps some people might be interested. Wish I was more cental.
