      Paul's 100g Upgrade

      So it's been a month since I sold my 50g Cube and I think I am ready for an UPGRADE. So, to start if off I ordered a 48x24x20 Leemar Starphire 3 panels, Recessed Euro-Braced, (Finally was talked into it) with a Center trap overflow. Which will be ready for pickup on Friday!! Next up is a Reef Octopus NWB-200 which I am amazed at how great the quality is and how good it looks. It maybe a bit overkill for now but I have possible frag tank plans in the future which would be plumbed into this system. NEXT is the AWESOME stand that Brandon AKA (brandon0350) has made for my new tank. It will be stained over this rainy weekend. Brandon is a Super Cool guy that has been honest and very easy to deal with through the whole process. I can't thank you enough! For the lighting I went with a 6 bulb T5 Nova Extreme Pro that I purchased used off the boards from sniper5431. It has 3 ATI Blue+ and 3 Geisman Aquablue+ This light will most likely be a hold over type light until I can buy some Vegas. Super STOKED thanks for looking! Sorry for all the CAPS I'm just super HAPPY

      Can't wait to see the build. Looks like you are putting together a nice setup.

      Nice looking tank. My 300g is a Leemar tank and I love it. They do good work.
