That has to be one of the nastiest nogShots I've ever seen. That's obviously a compliment =)

Default Wow!!!

I finally read each and every update since day 1 of Dez's build, and I was left speechless. It only took about a week and a half to catch up to the present time, and I feel like Marty McFly (Back to the Future). This has been an amazing journey from the get-go, I am very envious of your tank Dez! I am only allowed to keep a BC29, as I live in a condo in Vancouver. Although I convinced my wife to let me get a Skimz Ibox for my 3 year old daughter, like most people, it all started with Finding Nemo, haha! My wife said something very aspiring yesterday at the Vancouver Aquarium, she said I could have a bigger tank if we had a house, the first thing that came to mind was YOUR tank! I am trying to follow in your footsteps with the Zeo dosing, I've learned a LOT from reading this whole build! However, I'm on a tiny tiny scale compared to your tank, haha! I only dream of growth like you've experienced! I have a LONG way to go before my little nano BC29 see's any major growth. I switched to LED's about 2 months after getting the BC29, and have been experimenting with SPS, so far I'm experiencing good growth with a blue tipped acro, pink birdsnest, green birdsnest. I've been on a clam obsession lately though, 2 crocea's, 2 derasa's, and now 1 ultra blue maxima (bought 3, however only 1 made it). Anyways, back to your tank, please keep updating, and I'll keep aspiring to follow in your footsteps!

The skimmer didn't fall 8 feet onto concrete though .

Your skimmate photo certainly didn't help my hang over this morning Dez... Tanks looking amazing as usual!
