Both an Engineer and a builder friend told me to relax, but don't have a dozen people in the living room at one time
Try having a 120 lb goofy lab running around, he uses the fish room as a launching and landing pad up and down the stairs!! Tank def moves, fish think someone's coming to feed them all the time!!

I don't know about that, but maybe someone should start a poll NOT

It's my Reef OCD Raied I MUST keep the DT safe ... even if I lose some guys in the QT (which happened last May)
But to tell you the truth, there are days where I fight with myself to stay patient!!

Cool Wayne! Great fish. I love it
This is the one I can't come up with a name for yet ...

Let's see some pics in your build thread
I haven't had a chance yet to get any good ones of ours, but I want to post some soon

Thanks Sheena!! (Sorry I skipped over your last post)
I'm almost proud of our DT now

Maybe you could teach your Lab to feed the fish
Oh god, I just had an image of a dog throwing up in a tank. Mmmm, food
I'm out there right now. Today was my last day and I start my new job Monday, so I'm kinda school-girl giddy and am having barley-pops for dinner

I'll put their names up as soon as the Melanurus has one, but it'll take me some time as I feel such a beautiful fish deserves a great name

I would agree that you are definitely one of the most methodical reefers I know. Looking forward seeing more! :-)

Congrats on the new job!!!! Wobbly pops are awesome, not so good for forum posting....lol

Thank you very much. I am proud, but wish things would start sprouting instead of spreading so much

If only I could come up with a new break-through, like the equivalent of a skimmer !
We'd be out of this house so fast and into one where I'd build a rediculous tank and work on it all day
This is the one hobby I wouldn't tire of as long as I had enough time
