Anyway bro,

how high your future tank might be?

Exciting to see your tank transforming! :D

Happy Reefing,

Marc J.

:( abeit a little too fast for comfort..... but opportunities come and need to grab when its there.

SO many options now...

I am also thinking of tearing down my dinning area feature wall & decor and build a wall of full height cabinet

We seems to have a lack of space for storing bags and my iMAC and my girls' toys.

+ the geomancy master did ask us to take down the mirror feature at the dinning area if possible.

so thinking of doing that... and then extend the cabinet to the adjacent wall and have a tank cabinet there with a raised hood for the tank.

anyway.... really have to explore and wait a bit.... dun wanna make rush decision.

It seems unlikely now that we are selling the house so might as well do up a little.

you quite a bad planner.

112 sqm - minus storeroom, toilets etc = 50sqm

50sq shared among 5 persons = 10 sqm person

5% of 10 sqm = 0.5 sqm = approx 1.5 ft cube lor......

so just be nicer to her these days when you do up your tank.

buy her some gifts (no need to be expensive ones) buy her favorite food for her.

give her more compliments....

destroy your receipts, buy things with cash - dun use credit cards, stock very slowly....... etc etc.... dun let her know your tank expenditure.

Bring her go and buy cheap cheap corals 1st - those at SL, CF - $6, $8 etc. So she has a false sense of coral pricing.

then next time when you buy corals, she would assume it is avg $8 :)

Need to keep wife happy else you cannot enjoy your hobby.
