I had a new experience bringing some corals on an airplane as soveneirs from L.A.
These are pictures from Two Guys Coral. It was a lot larger than any LFS I have been to in STL.

One of my take home selections... actually this one was for someone in my club.

I completed a fish side project. I added a ro/di line from my 55 gallon storage drum to my ato container. I am using a float valve, leak detector, and solenoid valve as safety measures. This is also not directly run to my tank just the top off container.
It is nice to not have to carry buckets every 3-5 days. I no longer have to ask anyone to come over and top off my ATO when I am away. One step closer to full automation. One step closer to maybe being able to keep up reefing when the kids start coming.

Nice. Question- if locally, where did you get your 55 gallons? I wanted to use those but could only find them on CL and didn’t want to take a chance on their previous use.
My tank is also in the basement but I have to fill the ATO bucket manually because I mix kalkwasser first. Even then I can’t keep my pH as high as I’d like. Curious where your pH usually sits.

I got one of the 55s from a manufacturer of them. It was an inside job with help from my dad's business connections. The others were from CL. They were used to store vinegar for salad dressings beforehand.

New club contest coral placed in display. I put mine near last year's contest coral (green slimer).

I also moved the MP40 from the back wall to the lower left front side wall. The change has made the frogspawn/hammers/torches open up a noticeable amount more.

It's been a while. One tank crash, 2 job changes, and a baby later... I will have to post some pictures up. It was weird to see some of the old corals I used to have and some of the ones that are still kicking. Also the house in general looks different. 2 basement floods will do that.
