Thanks! It was a nasty old sump room before. It had a random electrical conduit running across it. It took some elbow grease and a lot of scrap shelving (I did get 2 melamine shelves and their brackets).
My wife is a little salty that I just commandeered more space for myself.
I told her she wasn't doing anything with it before and now it looks nice if I accidentally leave the door open or want to sell the place.
It still stores all the House's paints, stains, hardcore cleaners, and battery backup for the sump pump.
I do all this stuff when she travels for work so I keep telling her to stop travelling and she wont have any more surprises.
That's why I put in the Frag tank in installments.
She has seen it coming; have to be daft to not see it; I think its a little game of cops and robbers we play.
But, like a cop; she waits till my hands are on the Jewels before she comes in the siren's flashing.

They're ready for testing! I just need your address; lol; that's why I wanted you to make an account at ParlAquatics. I get cheaper freight and its sausage-finger-proof. THough I may try to stuff these in a regular envelope.

I feel attacked, personally, by this... and by algae in general.

I’m afraid to say that if you feel personally attacked by that video then there is a very strong possibility you will find me quite offensive!

As soon as I posted that link that video put me to bed.

He is a good speaker... and philanthropist

This is my algae dealing method: (I said rip-clean because it was easier but I do most of it in the tank.)

Looks nice. WARNING! What comes next may be offensive to some. Read at your own risk.












Also looks like it could serve a dual purpose as an abortion device!
