    Best place to get Acrylic in the Twin Cities?

    Hi all, I'm excited to say, I'm finally getting back to my tank build that has been ongoing for way too long now :) I'm making a ~30 gal cube tank and I'm just missing a couple last details before I can fill it up and get things going. I bought the acrylic for the build from a local shop (back...

    Josh's "Budget" DiY KiSS 75

    Yo yo y'all!! Hope you've been reefing hard, cause I sure have! Figured I should get this thread started here on TCMAS. Being a newer member with minimal experience it will be a great opportunity to get some input on my system and methods. It will also add some credibility to any advice or...
