You'll be so busy writing the essay and making it perfect that you wont have any time to post on here

e_baer · #12 (**permalink**) 06-25-2007, 10:03 AM

YESSS!!!!! I LOVE writing essays! especially REALLY long ones! No, but in all seriousness, I absolutely hate writing essays. I know I dont have to, but if i did, at least its about something interesting.

Its not all THAT bad..

I used the tank of the month articles from reefkeeping.com for reference as to how to write mine when I won back a couple months ago...

Gary we would love to see your system! Even if you do not post for tank of the month, post some pictures!

glampka · #17 (**permalink**) 06-26-2007, 07:16 AM

Ok - need to find time to shoot some pictures. Too busy floating down the river after work these days.

mtfabel · #18 (**permalink**) 06-26-2007, 10:47 PM

Tank Size: 180 Gallons
Tank Type: Reef
Time Running: 1 Year
Nomination Reason: Cause only 1 other person did and we need some pics in here.

This is what my tank looked like 3 months ago. It doesnt look like this anymore. I dont have any good full tank shots of the tank now.

Here is my favorite fish.

mtfabel · #19 (**permalink**) 06-26-2007, 10:50 PM

Just a couple more:

In this one there is only 1 MH on. Thats why its so dark at the other end.

And my mandarins

Ill try and get a few more tomorrow.

e_baer · #20 (**permalink**) 06-26-2007, 10:52 PM

i think everyone has already decided a winner after your first full tank shot.

mtfabel · #21 (**permalink**) 06-27-2007, 03:42 PM

Here is a low-quality video of my tank:

Motionbox: P4200674.MOV

dfurbee · #22 (**permalink**) 06-27-2007, 05:38 PM

Two nice tanks so far. I am hoping to be able to post pics of mine soon.

rlcline76 · #23 (**permalink**) 06-27-2007, 11:29 PM

mtfabel, my 3 yr old just about crapped himself watching your tank video. I know which way he is leaning on this one.

jvharding · #24 (**permalink**) 06-27-2007, 11:37 PM
