Yep. I have a whole view of Beirut running from Around the airport on the Left to the Jounieh Bay with the meditaranean behind it.Have you been here?. Will be getting my camera back today in the afternoon and will take some pics and post. I also have to document a lot of progress on the tank.

You should come try the real thing here it's much better.
LFS are great for freswater, but no so good for marine as there are only 2 stores that deal with marine items one of them is very limited and only gets stuff that you prerequest and it's only Softies. Second one is much bigger gets one shipment every 4-5 weeks softies, LPS and recently very rarely a few SPS in each shipment.

Yes indeed a lot of Chaos lately, but that's how it's been for the last 30 years + at least it's mostly political tension this time.
should be a nice tank when it's finished however I hit many obstacles in the Plumbing and stand that it was very ugly the last days. at least now all that is finsihed and I'm moving to the fun part.

OK back to action.
A very important addition well not to the tank but to the family. Meet Julia, arrived on the 4th of APril and caused me to lag in my picture processing due to the amount of pics she got.
Realized that the tank build has been running very slowly lately so got help by the only assistant I could find as reefers are not that common here. Don't know if he delayed or helped me more but it's always fun to work on the tank when he's around especially when he starts repeating what I explain to him in his own words. Guess its a good start for him at 2.5 years. Here's Joe explaining to me a few things and helping me by moving stuff around and shouting Joe help Daddy.

Thank Kar,
AS for Joe he is quite enthousiastic about the tank and aleady knows the names of some fish and corals. The clacium comment would work well on a print of that pic near the tank or in his room I guess.
As for our home we rented it 2-3 months ago when we relocated back. It was the first one we shecked and we immeditely loved it. Working hard on convincing the landloard to sell it as I son't see myself moving the tank in the future.
Will post some of the pics of the plumbing and the problems
I got doing it. as well as post many other things I have finished on the tank maybe tomorrow as it's 2:00 AM in the morning here...
