I've been pretty bad about photos, so here you go!

FYI its T -11 days until this tank will be up and running.

So far:
- I turfed the idea for T5s, the cost was too prohibitive to consider futher.
- I picked up a luminarc reflector as a upgrade for my existing 175w MH set up.
- I water tested my tank, no leaks!

A few photos to tide you all over:

New skimmer!

very patient build so far, it will be great when it's ready to add water

So the move happend, and to be frank about it, it was a disaster.

I lost or am in the process of loosing pretty much everything I really love in my tank. My younger dog ate the body of one of my fish that didn't survive, and my oldest clam is kicking the bucket. The floor in my new condo isn't level, so I am the Shim Queen.

Pretty much everything that can go wrong, has gone wrong in this move. So to everyone who has gotten some frags off me in the last couple of months, you may be getting PMs asking for frags.

I'm off to visit a store to buy new carbon, because of course it got destroyed in the move!

/rant of utter frustration.
