The work they do to keep our aquariums in shape. I love them!
They are fascinating creatures and everything in the tank will wow me. Just watching how the life interacts and the effect of one thing on another blows my mind. We share something in common, 'Doug'

:D

Too bad I didn't know more bug lovers. Seems to be rare in all trades. Sounds like Eve was an amazing person.
I hope your aips never come back!
Thanks so much. I hope so too. Haven't seen the nudibranchs since I introduced them. We'll see She was an awesome person. Her name was Corygirl here on Reef2reef

Now I see where all that DI water is going! Glad things are going better for you, can't wait to see this tank when you finish scaping. I am leaning towards breaking up rock and gluing up my own scape as well for my next tank. I should buy some rock this weekend... That could be a good excuse for the next tank, I'll need somewhere to stack all the rock..

It's addicting... my girls are the best and I remarried and my present wife is as much into this as Eve was. She went to Reefapalooza with me and to Aquashella. I can't complain. I stopped by Reef2reef booth and shook hands with the Rev. All good

It’s soaking in bleach
Having second thoughts about this rock. It's dense and not like what I'm used to as reef rock. Not sure I want to chance it

Thats my next project. Trying to get ideas on how to aquascape. I'm a pro at the Great Wall of China build. Other than that....

It looks great, better than I could have done, I would have just bought one instead of trying.

Can you slide the kessils on those on the mounts in case you need to adjust your lighting positions or are they stuck in those spots?

They slide to where you like easily. It’s an extra ecotech rail that I had laying around.
I drilled it for the hanging wires and just ran 4 8M machine screw bolts in the existing groove and put nuts on the bottom to hold the mount.
The actual mounts are aluminum bar cut to length and I used the hanger holes on the Kessil’s as support
The bar is supported with three hanger screws I had in my junk drawer from my Razors
Didn’t like the lights dangling on the wires so I came up with this.

So I watched every video on YouTube and read every post on Reef2Reef on aquascaping then I went to work
I now have so much glue on my hands I may need to go to the ER to have it removed
My daughter decides to help
After I explained that it must look natural she makes the tower with the eye of sauron in LORD OF THE RINGS

Just shoot me
