    Tell me about it! Everytime I do a water chance my GF looks at me like, are you done yet? She doesn't realize sometimes it can take like two hours! And that's not even with doing my water tests >.<

    Would enjoy seeing more pictures on how you plumbed the drain pipes from the DT to the garage.

    Love the auto dosing system, and how do you like using the Reefkeeper Lite? Was looking into one of these plus the ALC module

    Nice

    Very nice and neat - Do you have a separate circuit for the electrical?

    Very nice build! I can truly appreciate a well thought out system. I too am getting close to buying a home, and I think I am going to take a good 6 months of planning before I even put water in it. Congratz, and thanks for sharing.

    Wow thats awesome! I feel so honored!


    Ill take some pics tomorrow of the drain. Basically i used 1" vinyl tubing
    For the drain and drilled a hole right through to the garage. No fancy work there.

    The reef keeper is nice. If i knew i was going to expand the way i have, i would have just spent the extra money for a reef keeper elite because the lite can only handle four modules max and im already maxed. I cannot expand any more.

    I was lucky enough to have a gfci on that wall already because its mandatory for new homes in the garage for some reason.

    From the craftsmanship and planning all the way to the finish product I have to say your build has inspired me.
