Pretty soon you're going to end up with a 1.5g pico. And then where will your chaetoballs roll free?

Since all your creative juices weren't exhausted on desiging this build, I'm expecting some schweet stuff inside that glass box!


edit: Hope your wife is doing much better!

Thought I'd post a new fts for fun. Tank's running well. Rocks still look a little green but it's the slightest of films. The crabs and snails are doing a great job. The emerald continues to be my workhorse. She's molted a second time and is massive. Twice the size I got her easily. As for the corals every last one of them (besides the newest from Kien) are encrusting to the point that I can see progress on a daily basis.

My main three are still stable:

Ca - 470
Kh - 8
Mg - 1350

Not the clearest shot but it'll do.

Nice Brett, I sense an upgrade already based on me being able to visualize the future of those frags

Thanks! Already being planned and I know you're not surprised =) I'm currently in the 'lay awake at night and ponder the possibilities' phase. That phase drives me insane because I never have any extra money during it.

This tank will be a nem/clown tank when that time comes. The big one is grounded to the basement. My main floors are in terrible shape.

I was in the no$ stage during the whole build and of course the whole build cost way more than expected. I forgot how much corals and livestock costs. But my wife just did the "eye roll" and "let" me "invest" knowing that when the tank is filled, I wasn't allowed to upgrade..... At least you're allowed an upgrade

Ha ha, sounds familiar. Between money and making a final decision on something or I guess settling with something. Not sure of the term "investment". Looks really good Brett ! Who is this lostlight ?

Got a couple shots today that turned out quite a bit better. Colours are a crapshoot across different monitors etc but to my eyes on my screen...these are very close!
