lol that doesnt even concern me much either i think of my builds as a way to remember the mistakes i make for the next build. which wontnbe any bigger than this one for a long time. unless we get rid of the daycare. the onnly other build i have to do is a nano for my niece for college. it will only be a 10g tank nothing special. but ive never done a pico yet

So are you saying if you get rid of the daycare, the brand new peninsula tank will go bye bye, and you'll fill the basement with TANK ???

i do have to say after the struggles of running the ethernet wire trouble shooting the wire due to lack of conectivity. once i figured out how to properly wire and crimp the ends. this controller thing is kinda cool. just have to figure out the remote access thing and im set. oh yes and actually hook it to a running tank lol.

tested my ro line to the living room and its flowing nicely. the power line for the tank is there but wont be hooked up till stand is in place. al in all it was a frustrating day with a good outcome

so today was a really bad tank day for me. it seems no matter what build i do i do something stupid. and today was that day. wife and i decided to go to a movie together for the first time in a year. so i was cleaning up a bit for my parents to watch teh girls. rushing away vacuming. in the mean tme my apex i bought used from a fellow reefer was laying on the floor due to me testing and playing with it programinggetting familiar with how it works. i got distracted by the girls and well the display module is now wireless and a cool looking paper weight. ah well at the moment i can still access teh unit via computer but im afraid if i unplug it that the net programing won't stick. and then i wont be able to use it right away..

moral of the story dont leave your expensive electronics on the floor. but onthe upside the wife and i had a great time watching the avengers movie
