I’m Working on getting everything ready. Ordered my Pentair UV. Originally, was going with the 50watt, but didn’t want to spare the room inside the stand, so changed to the 40 watt. The body is 3.5 inches, so I can mount it behind the stand. Now, I think I’m flipping to the 65watt. It’s body width is 4 inches, so still room (not by much) behind the tank,. Too many decisions. Hoping to have this bad boy running by the weekend...

Did I ever show everyone my diy filter contraption (fluval was too big)?

There’s a zip tie at the top of the cup attached to the tube, and then a chain of zip ties long enough to clip to the lip of the tub. Had an extra sicce pump and some leftover tubing... I Obviously, zip ties are the extent of my diy capabilities ;Hilarious

Also, I may have had a moment of weakness this weekend...

Don’t judge..I was trying to cheer myself up;Happy

I will say good night with Jaxon’s, “why won’t anyone pay attention to me” face..

Hi everyone! Obviously, been mia again. Tanks been on hold..We’ve been caught up with doctors, finding a rehab facility, then respite care & now assisted living for my mother in law. Having my brother-in-law out of state has made the process more difficult. Finally, have it settled and just have to move her in. Will have to get her house taken care, but that’s another story:p

Now for the good stuff..my wonderful husband is making me go down to reef-a-palooza in Orlando..whole weekend to myself, surrounded by everything reef related! Going to be heading down shortly.

Hope everyone is doing well..miss you all!

Have fun! It's too bad we're sitting this one out in favor of finishing up our kitchen remodel. Otherwise I would say we should get lunch. Next time!
