Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Thankful you are all here! Hope you and your families have a wonderful day, bless you all. I will be doing just small maintenance this weekend. Looking to possibly pick up some new gear for my new build with all these deals going on! #608Reefers

Was up until 1AM last night scribbling notes about a design for a mega tank that won't get built. Does that count as an aquarium related project?

I would say that counts! No luck on the house stuff yet? We can’t find a house at all.

I close on the 4th but it is looking more and more like any tank is going to be an if rather than a when.
Congrats on the house! Sorry about the tank can you just set up someone around 100-200 gallons for the time?

The idea was to set up something between 65 and 100 if I couldn't get the mega tank started right away. That plan doesn't look solid at this point either.

Thanks! I'm surprised I landed it given the market. Stuff is going so fast it is ridiculous. It's my first on my own so I'm stoked and terrified all at the same time.

You'll get something soon. My realtor just kept telling me it would end up ok so I'll echo that.
Haha okay At least you don’t have to move a tank! I get the joys of moving all my live rock rock next week have around 250 pounds that I need to keep submerged lol or at least try and keep it submerged

Compliments of BRS Black Friday sales, I spent the majority of today migrating my Apex Classic over to new Apex 2016. It would've been simple if it was just one tank. But it's 2 tanks on one controller and half a dozen modules for Vortechs, Kessils, ATKs - and YES it's done! Amen! Happy Thanksgiving all!

The words moving and tanks just shouldn't be in the same sentence. I'm already in trouble for spending too much lately. I should have waited for all of these awesome sales lol. I've been so close to buying more hammers several times
