    Hmmm, you're not really Marc Almond are you?
    I'm sure i saw him playing one just like that many moons ago!

    How many gallons is that tank? Looks a lot wider than my D-D 24g, or maybe its a wider stand?Mine just has the one narrow cupboard underneath. Looks nice though, not seen one before.

    LOL clown mate its my two kids and they fight like cat and dog over it the tank is 90L AR620 going to be ran with canister filter with just carbon & rowa phos (when needed) in media bags and floss at the back i have got rid of the filter tray and my prizm skimmer will be sat there the background will be black. for a power head am thinking on a tunze nanostream 6025? but dont know what you guys think of course there will be live sand and live rock going in but dont know if to start with live sand and just get dead rock reef bones and let that mature from scratch ?

    only what i got to get now is:

    two elbow rim connectors with suckers

    a new intake stem

    deside on what rock to buy

    water pre mixed (LFS) for now

    power head

    live sand

    I would go with live rock from the start . Dead rock takes a long time to become live .
