d2mini's "Essential Focus" Mixed Reef Build

You have the skill of being able to pretty much take a picture of anything and making it an interesting photo to look at.

I bet you could even make a close up of egg crate look amazing! Haha kudos
haha, i don't have fish or coral to take pics of so I gotta make due! :D

Glad I found this thread at the start! Your attention to detail is allways an inspiration. I look forward to following the progress. Are you going to be going with "The Package" again?
Thanks! Yessir. More on that at a later time. ;)

Finally....the next chapter for you Dennis!
:D
 
When do you expect the new tank and sump to arrive may I ask?
Funny you should ask because I just found out yesterday that it will be.... VERY SOON! :D
That's for the tank.
The sump hasn't even been designed yet. But should get built in April. By our local craftsman, Building An Obsession.

I still want a picture of the fiinished outdoor space. With a color like that, it has got to be amazing!
The pics in post #10 are pretty much it. Just a bunch of colorful adirondack chairs, dining table, matching blue umbrella, dog pen (good for when the kids are out of control ;) ), my grill, and some pots with dead plants.
I'll post if we do something new but we first need to focus on the front yard.

Looking Good Dennis, along for the ride mate!
Woot! :)
 
So we'll be doing this together!!! Good start so far. I finished my lights today. The stand is next. I'll be putting my thread up soon. If you wanna cheat, the tank and sump are in the tank thread in the lounge. Remember the tanks we were talking about??? None of them ended up being "the one."
 
along for the ride. followed the last builds.
:wavehand:

Sooo, all thos pictures did jot show up on my iPad. For some reason, but they are on my phone. Very pretty!
LOL, cool. :)

Nice! Looking forward to your thread. :celeb1:
 
CONSTRUCTION IS COMPLETE! :)

If you go back to the very beginning of this thread I showed some pics of the house before we moved in. And now here you can see the changes!
A whole new office space was created with some new partial walls, dining room moved to the bay window area, and kitchen cabinet extended with new pantry and built-in microwave.
The original microwave over the stove will eventually be replaced with a vent hood that actually does it's job as a vent.

So we have the same couches and color but I have the chaise on both sides for a U. Based on that alone, we're best friends.
 
I am dreaming replace my microwave over the stove with a strong vent unit everyday. Pls post some photos after they finish the work.
 
Beautiful place as always Dennis! Can't wait to see the progress of this build 👍🏼
Thanks!

Sweet!!! My tank would fit right there!!! :lol:
LOL! :thumbsup:

Ha! Room Store FTW. ;)
Not what I would have chosen for this house (they moved with us) but I don't mind seeing them take a beating on a daily basis from the kids and dogs. :thumbsup:

What kind of office chair is that? I work from home and my three year old Office Depot special is taking a toll.
I dunno. I got it off a groupon like 5 years ago. It's not an aeron or anything fancy like that, but i don't see any name on it.

It will be a while before we get to that. We just got hit with a $5k repair bill to bypass the one cast iron pipe that is still left under the foundation which decided to start leaking. :angryfire:
