Very nice rocks . And beautiful cat .We went to @WWC in Orlando this weekend and picked up some awesome rock. It's tideline shapes and very light and looks great I think. Ivarr and I have been playing around with different scape options trying to decide what we like
assuming yours is also a Himalayan ?

Finished filling the tank up this morning. Took a total of about 57 gallons. I'm definitely going to have to order a lid soon.....
Going to finish working on enclosing the cabinet while it cycles.

I have a friend who owns a LFS a few hours from us and he mentioned to me that he is currently replacing all the lights in his shop.......so, looks like I'm gonna score a few used radions ! Super excited because up until now I really had no idea what I was going to do for lighting.

He's the one who got me hooked on saltwater a few years ago when he gave me an old biocube, lol. Not sure my husband has ever forgiven him

A little outside inspiration is all that’s needed .
Isn’t saltwater a wonderful thing …
There are tons of other far more expensive hobbies to get into .
on top of reefing I also chose a pilot license as a second hobby .

So just an FYI for anyone interested.....the Sicce SDC 6.0 pumps WILL fit in the return chambers of the tideline 62g lagoon tank, but even turned all the way down they are too powerful. Going to be selling them to get something else.

A friend is working on creating a 3d printed media basket to replace the filter socks in the back compartments of the tideline 62. I absolutely hate these things.

Getting geared up for this dang hurricane. Fairly nervous about this one. Fingers crossed I don't lose anything.
This hurricane has the same name as my 17 year old son, so he keeps getting texts from friends asking why he's terrorizing the state.

Made it thru hurricane Ian with no significant damage. Quite a few branches down and it looks like we might have lost part of the back garage that was already damaged before the storm.
I've made the crazy decision to move the tideline tank before installing the hanging lights. Not much, just a couple of feet to the right

Got the tank moved over where I wanted it (all by myself even!).... then started working on hanging my new lights. Have to make a stop at Lowes tomorrow before I can finish.
My boys found out I planned on hanging the lights and are not happy with the idea. They keep reminding me that once I do that it means I can't ever move anything again.

In order to hang them I have to attach a mounting piece to my ceiling. I'm sure they could be moved, but then it will leave damage to the ceiling

Depends how bad someone would want it moved , and to justify the repair needed .

Also installed an innovative marine helio heater system to the tideline tank. I've been so happy with how stable these have been on my smaller tanks, I decided to go with them again. It does have an audible alarm, the only thing that could possibly make it better is a wifi/text notification.
