Every few months I'd skim through the build thread on RC but there was just too much written there to fully follow along. Thank you so much for this summary!

Like many others here, I've followed your build on RC from day one. What Canadian reefer could resist?

Mr Willson, you've taught us so much, thank you.

Peter, your commitment to the hobby is incredible. Thank you for fulfilling our dreams.

Very glad to have you here with us on Canreef!

A big cost when setting up a tank like this is the money spent on "learning". There is also a staff to consider. The total cost of all the in-use hardware is probably around 1/4 - 1/3 of the total project cost.
