d2mini's "Essential Focus" Mixed Reef Build

[d2mini]

There's a couple pics up above.
And this week they are doing sheetrock, framing out new window and patio doors, and working on the brick outside.
Supposed to paint the ceiling today or tomorrow and then start laying tile floor.

Very cool. But oh my gosh. What is the cut out in the kitchen?

Kid's kitchen?

I think she was referring to this.

Would make a great opening for a massive inwall! ;Drool But, me thinks its a window.

Ah I must have missed that, my apologies didn't mean to hijack your thread.



Your "before" house was amazing, can't wait to see after!

I agree

 

[Victoria M]

Sorry. My new iPad just puts in words, changes words. I need to figure out this setting. I meant the large opening in the dry wall to the right of the ceiling peak in the kitchen.

Worth going through all 100 pages.

BTW, where did you get those square container you're using for water station? These or the 85Gallon version are exactly what im looking for.

Hi Dennis great tank, would you mind giving an update on what you where using for nutrient control? You started on Triton method and then onto esv now I belive your using aquaforest 1,2,3+. What are you using for N03 and P04 control? Skimmer and refugium?

Dennis, I have a Nikon D5600. What Macro lens would you suggest for this camera to TRY an duplicate your pics? I bought this camera a year ago and could not get the macro shots with the lens that it came with and have hardly used the camera since buying. Thanks

Get the Tamron 90mm 1:1 macro.

I have that camera with that lens, great combination!
