Haha addicted to construction is an understatement
I wish I had better finishing skills and I'm not quite done with the stand

I'm actually in the planning stages of another tank.. was going to go custom concept tank, but since this will be an office tank, I'm leaning towards a RSM S500 or S650.

I think acro prostata as its fairly long.
It often gets confused with acro milepora which looks similar but its much shorter.

I've also added the Apex DOS which does my water changes at a rate of 10g per week and this way I get to make saltwater once for 24 days every two weeks and I don't have to worry about water changes.

DOS is a bit loud, however its in my shed so it doesn't matter

I still do a 10g manual water change once every 3 months to clean up the sump and vacuum part of the sand.

I liked the Avast Vibe reactor, so I decided to get a Avast Swabbie for the BK Mini 180

4-5 days of skimming


Three weeks of not cleaning the swabbie... has the consistency of chocolate mousse (less the sugar and cocoa)




And four months cleanup of the pump. Between the pump/nozzle/skimmer body I had about 40-50 snails
