Omg - I accidentally highlighted the whole dam post green, tried to correct- ugh. Will fix thanks for noticing.

Ok, water will be clear by morning from sand addition, so just for you Mr Brown I will take photos.

Great suggestion on ARF, I will implement. Excellent product!
It's all good! It was just funny that I sat there expecting something to show up.

Not reef related but I found this amusing…. I was washing dishes when I heard a jingle and saw my cat right in front of me(kitchen is semi island in the middle of 2 hallways)

I’m sure anyone who follows my thread or even stops by to take a peak, has noticed my “Updates” are extremely long.

That is with intention. My goal in this build thread is two-fold;

1) To document my journey for myself so that I can go back and visit all the milestones, disasters, successes, funny and sad moments, and even those quiet moments when it just IS.

2) To hopefully help really new reefers like myself who took on a much larger lvl reef goal knowing they didn’t have the experience to do so; yet gladly learned along they way throughout the “journey”.
I truly enjoy your updates they are informative and really well written.

Thank you Amanda, that means a lot to me. I just want to help in any small way I can so other newbie’s will feel supported in a safe environment and take what I’ve learned through trail/error, copious amounts of research, and make it their own.

You are such a sweetheart and I would hug you!

Also, you can always do a TLDR summary at the start of the post. ( @kevgib67 that's Too Long Didn't Read for us old guys).
Another acronym you could use is MANTSH(move along nothing to see here) or possibly TITPYLF(this is isn’t the post you’re looking for, originated supposedly by some really old dude living in the deserts of Arizona)

Naw; I’m gonna make you guys get out the readers and if you’re interested, you’ll read. If mot, you can scroll to pretty pictures featuring globs of expoxy/glue, wrong setting on camera dark, and the occasional lovely photo of a fish. LOL
