I'll get my wife to take photos. She is a professional photographer after all.

My idea on the eel house is to purchase some flexible hose. I am going to wind it up so that the exit and entry are facing forward. That way I should always be able to see it. I'm going to use cable ties to secure the pipe in the shape I want. Then I have 40-50 lbs of live rock that I have already cleaned. I am going to use some of that and break the rest up to make the subtrate that I glue and bond to the pipe. I basically want it to look like a rock once finished. I have a 2.5ft electric blue ribbon eel. This will be his new home in my 300 gallon reef. As Smoothie said once this has had time in the tank and mounting a frag or two it will natural.

I'll pm with address when I get home, as pm'ing on my work computer is difficult.

I'll also make a materials list of things I'll be bringing and list things we might need more of.
