Thanks guys.

I don't have a garage these days and I was in a rush so the wood sides are normal cuts that sorta met up sorta square. I then mastered the art of using wood filler lol. Paint to seal the deal! In person it basically looks like a seamless box with trim on 3 sides.

Looks like I missed some excitement while I was away. Looking good! Would love to see it in person someday.

I must say, I've been following this build and checking out some of your others...Very inspiring work, thanks for sharing.

Thanks guys!

Kien maybe I'll host the 'low-key reef snackathon and chat' at my place so that happens lol.

Here are some shots of the new topoff and mixing tanks.

Topoff is a 45g and mixing tank is a 20g. I have yet to plumb the water change drain from the display and the new saltwater delivery to the display but I have a pump all ready to go in there. Maxijet will push 10g down into the basement drain from the reservoir in my sump. Eheim 1250 will double as mixing/refill reservoir duty.

Pics! Please note the stylish shelf-top made of a bunch of these ikea shelf pieces I had kicking around lol.

Also my Kole has now taken to my NLS pellets today as well so he digs pellets, mysis, grazing and looking dead-sexy. Still hasn't figured out the nori sheet I have clipped into my old easyblade scraper attachment. I might try tying it to a small rock tomorrow.

They have trouble with nori sheets as they don't have the right mouth for that type of feeding. What he will do is hang around when the other fishes are feeding off the nori and grab up any pieces that escape.

This is and will remain my only tang lance. what do you suggest? I was going to try one of poontang's feeder thingies but what should i do? I can just shred into bits and pop it in?
