Sorry for the lack of personal responses but I'm a bit overwhelmed by the speed the welcomes are coming in so once again, thank you all for kind words. [emoji172][emoji173][emoji172][emoji173][emoji120][emoji120][emoji1022]

I don't think anyone expects personal responses. We're too social to do that. But it's sweet of you to think about it!

You can start a build thread for each of your tanks if you'd like! That's an easy way to share your pictures!

Here's instructions for it: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/how-to-start-a-new-thread-discussion.203712/

Here's the link to start one: http://www.reef2reef.com/categories/members-aquarium-discussion.321/
Oooh I think I'll leave the build threads etc until a new build happens and I actually have something worthy of showing there. I'm telling myself I'm just collecting, holding and quarantining everything before I set up my final tank. Everything should have been qtd for about 3 years by then.... and I bet I still find an asterina star or a bristlemworm somewhere [emoji23][emoji23]

LOL! Of course! I keep finding stuff that I didn't even know were things.

Obviously, it's up to you, but your tank doesn't have to be any more than a thought in your head to start a build thread. One of mine is just that. The threads are more to keep track of everything you're doing in a neat way. (Plus a lot of give away entires include updating build threads. :) )

This was my main tank a few weeks ago before the seal split.

This was after it.

This is it now.

This is my junk tank. (The 1 that saved everything from the tank break)

I hope I've done this correctly.

Welcome!! Tanks for the pics! Sorry to hear about that seal!!
It was a bummer for sure, just a few days before I was going away for 4 days.. lucky I had the spare tank up n running, it was cramped in there overnight but I only lost 2 hermit crabs and that was because I couldn't find them in the dark... I did look. Lol
