Here's my interesting RODI can, It's set up in my garage.... Basically it gives me an emergency overflow for the garbage can if I forget to turn the RODI off. It also takes care of my waste water too. The PVC is plumbed to outside the house emptying into a garden!

Here's a funny one with my Jawfish and the Lettuce Nudibranch. The jawfish kept opening his mouth real wide at him, quite comical.
