Hmm, just saw the recent activity on this thread. Sorry I haven't responded. Thanks for everyone's continued interest. We still don't have a back yard, so alas the tank remains arid dry. The only progress made has been the addition of some molding around the inside of the arches in the tank room. This wasn't completed by the cabinet guys and was a "punch list" item that they only now got to finish. The yard ain't gonna be cheap and with today's economy, well, I'm not sure when I'll be able to complete it. But you can be sure that once it is finished, I'm going full bore all out on this tank. Bare with me and I hope it will be worth the wait!

How is the tank in your doctors" office doing. I like how you are waiting until you can do it right

I totally agree, but he's probably still doing landscaping to maintain WAF...

Sorry all, but meeting with landscapers TODAY to come up with the finalized plan. We HAVE to have everything planted by spring, so that means the end of spring or early summer will be when I'll get this tank going.
Nick, the red bugs (and other factors) killed off a bunch of the office corals. The skeletons were hacked out of the tank, and we now have lots of room for new corals. We did pretty well donating frags to lots of people, so I have no concerns regarding re-stocking the tank.

It's funny how things come around eh? Dude you a ton of sps waiting for you in my tank but I discovered I too have red bugs. I say in one months time John can come over and help himself to what ever he likes. I also have some orders in with other folks and when the weather permits they'll ship. I'd say all in all you'll have about 30-50 frags to choose from.

I was thinking of this thread the other day. Glad to hear the updates are still filtering in Mike. Spring/Summer will be here in no time.
My wife and I are settled in and my tank is up and running. I lost a 90% of my SPS to AEFWs and now I am slowly rebuilding after waiting 4 months w/o acros. To top it off, I just found some monti eating nudibranches. If it isn't one thing, it's another, right?

Dudester, I lost track of your other 203g tank build, just caught back up on it and it brought me here where now you leave me cliff hanging to see water in this awesome new home and tank!! Tease!! Love the way you designed this one. Can't wait for some updates here as well. Hoping to design an AGE tank one day soon, maybe not 203g, but close.

THDude - Thanks for your nice comments. You need to check out fishypets' thread and see what happened to that 203g tank. It's looking great! Hopefully I won't leave y'all hanging too much longer on this current tank. The snow here in Austin (yes, snow in Texas!) only held up the landscapers one day, and they continue to make steady progress on the yard.
