Working from my phone and can’t figure out for the life of me how to link my build thread. So pathetic I am with technology.
Touch the 3 dots on the top right and you will get the option to copy URL. Then paste it here! [emoji16]

Stan, I’m dying laughing right now. I’ve had maybe two people check my build thread out so I thought man I might get a third person to check it out.......I gotta get this thing linked. I scroll through my thread after trying to link it and low and behold your one of the two people who checked it out. lol. And I still could not get it linked. Nothing in the three dots that says to copy URL, etc. no worries though. It’s mostly me just rambling after a couple of drinks! Thanks for the help though.

I don't have a build thread but this video will give you a good idea of how the tank was build in November 2016. All livestock comes from a previous tank that has been running since 1990.

Reminder everyone;
One of the requirements to be featured for Reef Tank 365 is you have to have a build thread for your tank. If you don't have one it's super easy to start! Just start a thread HERE

Also please note, a build thread does not have to be for new tanks. Even if your tank has been up and running for 15 years, you can still create a build thread describing equipment, livestock, maintenance, parameters, share photos of your reef, and chat with others about your tank :)
