It seems like you enjoy what you do Luis. It can be very rewarding to complete a big job like that. Looks like you're earning tonight's Heineken brother!
 
Hope everyone is enjoying the day!
Got caught up in cleaning the garage.
Now that my daughter has moved out, I've decided to let go of 12 years of stored up crapola.
Feels good.
Very liberating.
 
I just ordered 10 5/8-3/4 berghia from @ReefEngineer. Hopefully they are hungry. These monsters have to go!

I am going to send you some hungry monsters. They are going to take out the aiptasia quick, they will have your tank cleaned up in no time.

Thanks again for your order.
 
Well you know what I mean, the difference between the colors under full actinic blue and white. I schedule full whites when I’m less likely to be home. I took that picture because of haow big my duncan was next to my largest coral in the tank, NY Knicks torch that has had multiple heads fragged about a half a dozen times. I’m running out of room and I despise fragging anymore.
Kev doesn't matter what color lights you run you've got one of the best looking tanks I've ever seen.
Period.
Run whatever color you want my friend.
 
Kevin, do you or your wife make Ossobuco? Im having trouble finding a beef shanks. I was wondering if you might have an alternative.
Ox tails John.

Good luck John!
Get those bad girls you're tank is amazing!
I'm thinking about breaking down both my tanks I can't take the aiptasia anymore.
Wasted almost $300 on berghia.
I'm always pulling for you my friend!
