The pains of electrical man. Ive bribed my dad into coming out and installing a dedicated sub panel for fish room. That im going to set up on little generator for emergencies if needed. Not many snow storms causing power outages here in the dirty desert but better be safe than sorry I guess. I'm gonna put outlets all over the room as well. Whoever ends up moving in next will be perplexed as to why most of the outlets are in ceiling hahaha

How many gallons are you at down there now?
Also what a man gotta do for some of that rock. I know non reefers don't understand why we get so excited about rock. But your unboxing of all that rock was the highlight of my year so far haha

about 1200 gal atm,the rock is a majority of mine before i moved ,had somewhere around 5000 lbs plus prob 2k more in display tanks ,only brought 300 lbs with me when i moved.
now these guys are moving out of Illinois ,thus hey frank want this rock back...umm ya.. ;Woot ;Woot ;Woot
How did you spend and what came with it? what will you keep and what will you replace? Sorry I'm curios.
no clue on spending ..cannot keep track, will then not be a hobby anymore,buy and sell on a moments notice,keep what i like ,sell other to buy more, endless cycle..:oops::cool: but i live for it ..wife has "dealt" with my addiction for 30 yrs now ..something must be right;):)...
