I just joined on here and wanted to post my tank so people have an idea of what I'm keeping.
The bummer is after 14 years in the same place, I just got word that my place is on the market, so it's up in the air as to what I'm going to do, try to find a place that allows a tank this size, or downsize for a while, just not sure yet.
I'm a General contractor/carpeneter by trade, built the stand and cabinet myself, by hand, in my back yard, no CNC or anything special.
Anywho, this is what is sitting in my living room right now.

Very NICE Davo, furniture and Reef alike. Hopefully you'll get the living arrangement figured out soon and be able to keep this beauty set up and running for the long run

Cheers, Todd

Very sweet reef! I do like the blue cloves if that is what they are over the rock work.

Beautiful tank! The stand is amazing! How long has it been running? What equipment does it have running on it?

Hey! I remember your tank on the other forum, especially because of your tank furniture, how awesome! I am still probably going to end up using your method for making the furniture. :)

Yes I have been around on other sites for a while, but I kept seeing this site on FB and thought I'd hop on and check it out.
I've been keeping SW tanks for nearly 30 years now, but the sites help to compare experience and learn more than just the books we had to choose from back when.
Feel free to make use of whatever you see or ask whatever questions when it comes to tanks or woodwork.

That's quite a bit of flow. At least for a tank that isn't packed with SPS colonies! I have another question! How much do you dose per day for Calcium and Alkalinity?
