I know Tim has had his hands full of late. His mother had covid in a nursing home and he recently got promoted at his job into a higher supervisory position that I am sure is taking up more of his time. Not real sure how the build is going but I know he has been working on it as time permits.

Bill sent me this amazing RRC Rainbow Splice frag a few weeks ago. Looks amazing! Thank you my friend! @SawCJack00

Added lots of new coral frags during 2020 but have been extremely busy with work and trying to navigate 2020 upside down world.

Just speechless, Chibilis! Thank you for the amazing compliment.

I don't hesitate to say that I think this is the best build thread on the site. It's not about the tank (breathtaking), the stand (exceptional), the lights (brilliant), your corals (unbelievable), or any other one piece. It's your meticulous attention to detail. Not only is your build planned simply and effectively down to the last, minute element, but the way you've catalogued it here is revealing of the organization and planning mindset. This is what a build thread should be. I appreciate the way you have uploaded pictures of everything, responded to each question and comment, and linked back to and re-uploaded images of things from 30 pages ago when people ask. When you decide to do something, you commit to it wholeheartedly, and it shows. Thanks for keeping us all in the loop, even when there's not much to show.
P.S. is there anything new to show? :D

Thank you too, NautiTang! Big tank still not ready for livestock but have plenty of corals to add when the time is right. I keep on changing my mind on what fish to add.

I hope all is well with you and that the lack of posts since July is due to not much going on (or perhaps too much going on and you wanted to keep us in suspense) and not something bad.

As @Chibils said this is how a build thread should be.



I am very curious as to the advice given about the pygmy angels

Thank you all for taking the time to follow my build thread.


Good to see this coming together Tim! Man that live rock is getting old! ;)
Alright, just spent the day going through 59 pages. You have an amazing setup. Really looking forward to seeing that tank full of corals. Great work.
Holy cow! Simply mind blowing build!
Following...this is massive. When it's done can I come for a swim?

Those look amazing Tim! Your CRT Rainbow Explosion is cut and healing along with the Fruity Pebbles, Electric Myagi, and Candyland.

I will provide some long overdue updates soon. Going through a whole house renovation project now and just returned from the Green (Vermont) and White (New Hampshire) mountains region. Back to reef life soon!

Believe it or not, I’ve actually been to that red building before, lol. Must have been 5-6 years ago, but I went there with my grandparents and aunts. :D
