When I used to have a coral farm in my basement, my water and energy use were off the chart. "This is before they legalized weed here"
Anyway, I had the DEA here. ... TWICE!
I guess that they figured I would be relaxed and easy to catch if they showed up two weeks later.
The whole block surrounded, ghetto bird and all.
It was actually quite funny. Especially when they realized it really is corals.
Dumb ass' .... all they had to do is look in a window a see 18,000 watts of metal halides over aquariums.Scott - Colorado Springs, CO - Zone 4/5 (Depending on the year) - Elevation 6266ft

Scott, I was thinking the same thing about my wife. Love the story about the corals, that's a lot of wattage.Calvin, Wish list is to finish working on the new house, someday.

My propagation room was in the house just like Dkirktexas but now I am in the process of building an outside propagation room which will be much more convenient.

Don't need a greenhouse, got an office, LOL
Don't need outside grow room, got an office, LOL (actually I do have an outside grow area for cups, picture later)
Don't need the halides, got an office, LOL
When asked what I do in my spare time, I say "I don't have any spare time, I spend all my time in the office" with a perfectly posed straight face.Wish List - Any LSU figComment

I had a 1500 gallon (60" wide X 48" tall X 120" long) reef with another 1100+ gallons of frag tanks, two 300 gallon sumps that actually took a good amount of over flow and ended up with halides as well. Plus 100 gallon sump to recycle the skimmer, another 150 gallon sump/refugium and a 100 gallon sump for the Ca reactor discharge.
All that said, I used to own a saltwater store and it was the display tank. When I closed the store after the economy crashed, I moved it in a couple of days (with the help of A LOT of friends). So the house went from no fish to a giant system, the energy use dramatically increased and the utilities department turned me in.
I still laugh when I think about it.Scott - Colorado Springs, CO - Zone 4/5 (Depending on the year) - Elevation 6266ft

*SIGH* I remember those days. I did not need to go to FA or take a 12 step program. I got married and moved into a house full of sentiMENTAL attachments (read that as borderline hoarder) and a small backyard. Reality whacked me upside the head with a 2X4. HA! I'm kidding, I already have 3X the number of trees I can realistically keep in the backyard when mature, but I did limit my new starts to one(ish) 20 gallon bin worth of figs and one for pomegranates.Littleton, CO (zone 5b) - In Containers
