    I know a lot of you guys have heard my talk about, now that I got some fish, I decided to make a quick video so you guys could see what I have been working on. I REALLY need to get some coral, hopefully there will be some nice deals at BNARC this weekend.  I plan on picking up a couple pieces there at least and then finish up the stocking at Fall Fest.
    Anyway, here it is.  Enjoy.  Make sure to watch it in HD it looks a lot better!

    That's awesome Jeremy. Are the canary and the midas going to fight? Also, what song is that, I like it...

    Everything in the tank is a little nippy, they are all trying to find territory's. The midas came in alot bigger than expected, he isn;t near as mean as my yellow watchman goby, that thing thinks he owns the whole tank. And I think he ate my pistol shrimp already.
    Oh, the song is "The Ocean" off of the Against Me! album New Wave.

    Looks nice Jeremy. I look forward to seeing it with corals in it! Sounds like you have all the equipment on it that you need to make it a nice, stable tank.

    Great looking tank Jeremy! I really like how you set up your rockwork also.

    How did you get it so purple already??

    The tank has been setup for a long time, it just always had problems with heat and salinity swings. I actually had a bunch of coral in it at one time but they all melted over the summer. Now that I upgraded my lighting I have more fans in the hood so it actually helps keep the tank cooler. I used the ATO float switches from my other setup on this tank now the salinity is stable as well. I am hoping I can keep everything under control and pest free.

    As for the rockwork goes, i don't know if i am too happy with it but once it's all encrusted with coral it won't even matter.

    Hoping to score some good deals at FTF this weekend!

    If it was an RBTA it would have put itself through the Vortech blender by now... /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/tongue.gif

    What camera did you take that video with? It's really good quality!

    I don't even wanna get started on the RBTA thing....
    As for the camera goes I used this.  It's a Canon HV20, It films at 1920x1080 aka Full HD  I have a "few" accessories on it though. 
    I guess you could say it is also "Pimped-Out"  I am actually pretty excited I am working with a group of guys and we just got a couple commercial gigs as well as a movie we are going to start filming next month.
