Well Iam little confused on how to do this and any feedback would be appreciated greatly. I have a ton of DIY I do, (kinda a habit from back in the day)
Some background. I been keeping reeftanks since 1978 or 9. Back then it was water changes almost daily with soft corals only. We used Plant grow lights light the aquarium and home made filters to keep things in check. So I still make quite bit of stuff, My largest tanks were dual 140's made of plywood back in the mid 80's. They crashed every week it seems because I was in the Army at the time and my ex-wife had not a clue what do, no matter how many times i instructed her to my method. Hence the ex in wife. She cost me more then anything I built.

After my retirement I opened Aquarium Extreme. It was an online store and had done quite well with it. But after a time and down turn in the economy seen a drastic drop in sales , so I closed the store. I was without a tank since then with a move to my current location and turbulance in my personal life it was always put on the back burner. Well now is time this blog will show where Iam at this time,

Now the question is should I do a complete post to where Iam at currently? or do I do seperate blogs for my DIY projects?

    You can do separate blogs for each topic if you want. It'll make it easier to follow along and comment. If you do a complete tank summary that is cool, but if you're getting into DIY projects, write up single blogs. If they are worty, we'll upgrade them to articles on the homepage.
