Totally. I just have no experience setting up a big reef tank equipment wise so having someone local to ask question is a valuable source. I can't accept PM here yet since my membership had expired. I will ping you through RC and maybe we can set up something for this weekend so you can give me...

Looks like it really depends so getting a booster pump might be the only option. Thx guys! Mike, You are in the Protola area as well? I don't think I have meet you before, ok for me to come over sometime to checkout your tank? I am setting up a 150g so I need lots of help from someone...

where is point richmond? :) is that in SF? anyone in Portola area?

Does anyone know what PSI pressure is in city? I am looking to get a RO/DI system and that's one thing I need to know or I might have to buy a booster pump. Is 65 psi pressure pretty common and standard?

Are you talking about the 5g jugs? Are there bigger ones? Where can I find those food grade container? like HomeDepo?

what kind of containers do you guys use to store RO/DI water? and where do you buy it?

Talked to stand builder and he said the screws have "extra capacity" and handles ~6 tons pressure with no problem. :) However, he's afraid the tile floor might not be able to handle the pressure so he's going to "redo the legs" for me just in case. Couple more pictures with the overflow...

you guys are making me second guess the adjustable legs. i will ask the builder to make sure those are ok. btw, the stand isn't build by Keith.

The stand (36" in height) was delivered today. It's not skinned yet tho: Inside of the stand: With 4 adjustable legs: to make the stand perfectly balance in all directions:

I will ask Keith to send a few more photos once the tank is ready. Here are a few more he built in the past:

A few people have PM me about detail and price of my tank but since I can NOT read or reply PM, I will just post it here and hopefully they will see it... The tank is 48"x30"x24" (150g) Penninsula style with euro-bracing. The 3 viewing sides are starphire while the overflow side is black so the...

the 3 sides are starphire.

Hi xcaret, I got an email that you have send me a PM regarding a sump but for some reason I can't read my PM on here. So to answer your question; no I haven't found one yet. :) Did you post your FS in the selling forum so I can reply and continue the discussion from there. Thx!

Why would he stop making tanks? :) I didn't get a quote from Leemar but Keith's price is pretty good. I did get a few quotes from other local makers and although the price is reasonable, the "handling / shipping fee" is ridiculous. It's just so high, it almost double the price of my tank. Keith...

Thx! The builder is Keith in SacTown. :)

Hi Guys, I am getting ready to acquire a new 150g tank (Penninsula style) with 3 sides starphire and an external overflow box. Dimension of the tank is 48"x30"x24". This is the first time I will have a large tank so I am really looking for advice and help from the local reefers who are more...

yes that's true. never mind then. there is always next one. that really sucks, i am so prepare for my first one. thx!

ok. so i can't ask someone else to bring the 2 frags i have and pick one or 2 for me? is that what you means by "exchange picks"? if so, that's fine then. thx!

it turns out that i won't be able to make it to the meeting tomorrow. this really sucks. is anyone in SF willing to come to my house (at the morning) and take the 2 frags i have to the meeting and help me pick 1 or 2 (which i will tell you) corals from the swap? if so, please PM me so we can set...

do we need to bring our own container, bucket or bags and stuff to hold the frags? or will BAR provides that?
