Tonight we are going to waste no time and jump right into this much anticipated episode.

(47:45, <ul><li>In your youtube videos I notice some of your walls/racks/tubs seem to be interchangeable for your needs at any given time. How did you come up with that design and how does that all work to your advantage? (46:00, 47:26, 49:30,  </li></ul></li><li>What are some of the challenges with keeping so many species in such a fluid system? (53:45, 56:00, </li><li>Moving to Thailand soon!
