20 Gallon IM Peninsula Build!

[PicassoClown04]

Looks like my tank a couple years ago. Crashes suck, although I believe they make us better reefers when we can learn from them!!
Looking forward to the rebuild. The best build threads IMO, have the good, bad and the ugly. Thank you for sharing.

Hey Aqua Man! Ive been following your build for a while now, it was awesome to watch it grow and mature. Thank you for the kind words, they mean a lot to me

Still just a refugium at the moment . Homecoming and the lamb show and band competitions are kicking my butt here’s a pic for the moment though! Me and my baby boy Milo got 3rd place at the county fair!

Those gonis!!

Those gonis!!

I’m 100% positive I went a little nuts. The tank half crashed after I moved…lost my gonis, octos, hammers, frogs, all but 2 bowers (and one is still fighting to come back), well pretty much everything (those nems didn’t miss a beat!!). Two of favia were hanging on by a thread. I removed all the excess skeleton and now they seem to be doing ok. Same with two acans I had. 1 mushroom flourished. 1 the mother died but the baby survived. My single blasto also thrived. Weird things

I have now gotten the hammer/frog/octo garden back! Including a wall!
And a massive Goni garden. There are two alveoporas.

New - added today

The photo of the wall by itself is 1/2 hour after being added to the tank

I’m not very good with those!

So how is the true college experience treating you?

I got myself a nifty tassel for my completion of my MBA

Not sure if I could have done the whole online school thing 20 years ago.

So what’s your degree going to be in - I’m old so you’ve probably told me and I forgot

I’ve always enjoyed school, maybe not all the classes but most of them, and some teachers/professors just stink! Had a biology teacher who put me to sleep without fail every class…I sat in the second row!!! I started recording his lectures so I could play them back in small doses (or I’d fall asleep at home!). When I apologized he said “don’t be sorry you’re doing better than most of the class!

It’ll all be over before you know it!

When I first went to college….we were told that we should wait until least our sophomore year to pick a major…as there are plenty of required classes that you have to take for all majors….

So if you switch what was it before?

And if you switch again who cares!!! As long as your happy everyone else can take a flying leap!

I switched because I transferred schools. Now I can graduate and go straight to work instead of going to secondary schooling for 5+ years and drown in the depths of student loan hell. Went to see Hozier to celebrate the last day of classes yesterday! Now all I have to do is survive finals week
