So through frugalness I've made a few mistakes. First month in the new house I'm unsure what the utility bills are going to look like. I have experience with electric baseboard and it's expensive. I have 2 200 watt heaters running in the system and they're not keeping up. Every day I check in...
Tank is wet. Not one leak in the plumbing. Sitting at 1.020 and 55 degrees. Gotta bump those numbers up tonight. Tomorrow is the big day. The final thing to be moved out of my apartment is all of my fish and corals

So far...
