here is my new 35 gal. 24lbs of live rock, 60 of lbs live sand, 1 turbo, 2 hermits, 3 chromis. First fish tank and first reef. More live rock, 2 percs, 1 lemon peel, 1 six line, zoos galor, and some other corals to come. Eventually getting ride of the chromis but they are a cool starter fish I thought. Whacha think?

You gotta use a 3rd party program to shrink them down. I usually use Photoshop, but there are a lot of free picture editing programs out on the net you might find.

If you right click the file, and click edit, you can open "paint" by default, and resize by clicking "image" then "stretch/skew". I usually take a 640x480 down by about 75% to make it 56k friendly.

The lack of 2x4 support studs really scare me.

Hey I have some new pics of my fish. Tell me what you think. I am going to get my first zoos tomorrow on a tonga branch from window to the sea in temecula. Need to wait for some more funds.
Acoustic about the lack of 2x4s, I talked to my father inlaw/ licensed contractor, and another reliable source and they sayed I am fine. Thanks for the concern. The stand is made of 3/4 ply with a 3/4 solid white oak frame wich gives it the strength. All joints are glued and screwed. The two vertical pieces under the tank are set 1" inside of the outside of the tank and then supported by the three virtical pieces. I should be ok.

Thanks for the input

How do you post multiple pics in the same post? I feel bad for doing 5 post with just one pic each.
