Actually the original sizes changed a little since I talked about them with Ninong some months ago.
Now they are a 710 gallon reef, and a 550 gallon one (empty tanks volume alone, not adding sumps, refugiums, etc)

Yes, it is really stressful. I had to change my lifestyle a lot this past 3 years...


Have you seen Denzel Washington in the movie "A man on fire" ?



well, I thought I already made my worse mistake taking my wife to see "Proof of Live" with Russel Crowe months ago (another "kidnapped in South America" flick)...but it looks like I was wrong.
After seeing Man on Fire, my wife got really concerned about my older daughter, since she is going to start Kindergarten next year.

Boxy, and a lot of glass...yes, I give you that
Here some pics
The house is inside a fenced community, otherwise I would never risk such a big glass surface on the back of the house (you can see the two stories high opening on one of the pics)

Joaco......looking very nice, keep us posted.

Yup saw that movie just a couple weeks ago... Good flick. Can't imagine living the life to match it.

PLEASE OH PLEASE DON't Paint your house that AWFUL YELLOW!!! Otherwise I think Ninong is partially correct, it does look like an office building, but I like all the GLASS!!!

I won´t! That was just the color the architect gave to it on the 3D renderings. Awful is very polite compared to what I told him it looked like

Here a few more pics and 3D renderings. I like my privacy, so the front of the house has very few windows, and the back (view to the garden) is almost all glass Note the whole roof is solid concrete, you could literally land a helicopter on it...

Looks like the house is comming along real well. Going to take a few mounths to finish though. Is the concrete for security reasons, or are all houses built that way there? Looks sorta bomb proff though Cant waite to see the tanks finished..Mike
