    Our house is almost finished!

    OK now keep in mind that its only about 1300 square foot but i am in love with this house. Fully loaded kitchen, 2 baths, 3 rooms, hard wood floors, carpet in the bedrooms and no center pillar French doors to the back deck. Oh and every bit of electricity is energy efficient. Oh and i will also be working on my new 75 soon

    Here are a few pictures









    I Just wanted to share

    Looking nice!

    I understand your excitement, we gutted and rebuild our house when we bought it a few years ago. A lot of work, but worth it.

    New development!

    I am still staying at the old house so this morning i went to the new to check the tank and sure enough, my clowns finally hosted with the new anemone. I guess it took scaring the clowns to host whatever works right! lol

    Imagine that. Every time I go to OH I have to get another item of OSU stuff. It is hard to find at a reasonable price here in NC.
