Budgeting??? Uh-oh...

[S2G]

Yep... had a reef for about 10 to 15 years and stopped reefing about 10 years ago. My anal-retentive OCD personality forces me to create an excel spreadsheet for most big ticket/complex purchases that need planning... example for the current build...

That gives me anxiety and I cant even read the fine print lol.

Yea, had to shrink it so that I can give you a sense of all the line items (equipment, test kits, maintenance items, plumbing pieces, etc.) That I'm planning for.

Saltwater bible, Reef 3:11 reads thou shalt not write down purchases with true dollar amount.

Would probably need to start a new thread for this... however, I need a new electrical panel in 1st story garage as theres no more empty circuit breaker spaces (thinking I'll need about 4 or 5 more slots)... need about 3 or 4 new 2x electrical outlets and new wiring on and to 2nd floor... new 1 outlet and wiring in garage on far side of garage wall opposite electrical panel. Need 2 outlets on the same wall as electrical panel one about 10 feet away and 1 about 20 feet away... oh while I'm at it, I need an outlet on the same side of the wall for 220V when my wife purchases her plug-in hybrid. All this doesnt sound easy to me. Lol.

LOL. I was thinking you just needed a new circuit for the tank, or to swap out a couple regular receps for a GFCI.
