Ive been pretty busy with my mom & pops selecting and buying their last home as they are pretty old now. Here's their new home. The backyard is my favorite. What do you guys think?

Nice place.. I'm thinking a 225gal at least, in-wall FO w/ BK-300.. automate the whole thing and do water changes for them remotely once a month.. just get pops to put salt in the mixing tub for you.

Wow, thats very very nice! If we only have that kinda property in Singapore! Come to think of it, we do have some which has a waterway as a backyard but it will cost a cool US$3Mil minimum I think!

Actually.. my dad like corals a lot. But of course, all softies.

This is in Houston, TX (US).

nice house/area,
never saw water ways like that, are those chanels man mad ? is it ocean water?

[invincible569]

Heinz, its man made. The entire neighborhood is made this way. Every house gets a share of the "lake".

Man,thats my dream house right there

Edward - what part of town is that in? It looks like a couple of the subdivisions around here.

I wonder how many bags of salt it would take to make the channels a man-made reef?

Thanks Guys. Mike, its off of 290/Cypress Rosehill.. VERY west of Houston.

Ah, way out there. They are building so much out that way - that's why we moved closer in. When Coles Crossing started filling up, my commute time went from 25 minutes to over an hour.

Beautiful place! My grandparents are out in Katy - was out there this past Thanksgiving, and saw new construction similar to your parents. I was amazed at the cost. It is seriously tempting to pack up and head south!
