Thanks for the comments guys.

It was the first time I saw it aswell, and I really like it, I just gave the measurements .

Well today has been a crazy day, those fish can be :thud: to catch and those shrimps................................:rant2: lol.

But everything else went smoothly.

I added the water back in about 13 hours ago without any fish just live rock, and few snails, hermits and one condy that where all attach to the rocks.
It looks horrible, aquarist worst nightmare.
The rock placement is horrendce, I have'nt aquascaped it yet because it is just to murky, I have just dump them here and there.
I'll wait till tomorrow to do this.

It has just gone midnight, and the water looks nice and clear again, so I have decided to add the rest of the live stock back in without the lights on during the night, they have all been in the dark. I did get glimse of some off the fish, and they looked fine, will give a better description when lights go on

Nice looking cabinet! Does the grain pattern in the main door panel run in different directions as it looks? Or is it just the picture causing a gloss effect? :cool:
 
That looks really nice. Any updated pictures?
 
thanks for your feedback 5xevy,rbishop,atnixon,Dangerdoll,cullyisgully.

rbishop - the grain does run in different directions.

atnixon - the green leaf is my ' red ' mangroove plant (even though its green)
its been in there since I first setup the tank, it was a impulse buy without the research. But has seem to grow, it sticks out of the tank now. I have research it now though.

5xevy - no i have'nt got any yet, but i will have some later.
