jervismun Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Oh yeah... and start all over again? I think it's good to show some "before" pix so that the readers there can be inspired by your setup... and do mention the name "Atlantis" coz I'm sure a lot of Atlantis tanks out there needed major revamping and you shall be their successful case study Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
