Sorry everyone about letting this thread fall off the face of the earth... I'm happy to inform you the reef is doing magnificent! (though very few new additions have been made, due to other expenditures... (roof repairs, saving for a wedding, etc...)
I will update very soon with pictures, changes, and all that fun stuff we all love to read about on other people's build up threads...
Thanks for the condolences gkarshens, (I, guess Tessy my eel gets to keep his home to himself for another week or so.)
