120 Tank Build Thread

I did 6 coats of helzmins (sp?) No paint. Most people who deal with staining strongly suggested to do the inside as close as possible to the outside.

No real updates. I had my wife pick up the oceanvisions today. (was actually cheaper than the vinyl at the sign shops) Plus I really like it. However, CPE rolled it out on the floor to cut it and there is some holes in it so I have to send her back down there tomm. I was looking forward to getting that on. Oh well. Hope I don't have a problem exchanging that.
 
Why don't I see any updated pics? Lets see it stained! I also hear you have an awesome wiring job inside that canopy. :D

Yeah... We know Roy is not quite right.. Where I am from we'd say he is a bit "touched in the head."

We might have to doubt your sanity too. A mastermind trying to throw us off the track?!? Could be......

Oh great! And usually you're contagious just before you get sick and the first day or two. I was over Thursday the second time wasn't it? I guess I'll know by the end of the day today!

What no sand in there? Get that sand in and a little water to start getting it to grow some bacteria and it will clear up faster when you get it running. At least 6 inches of water and a little powerhead.
 
WOW!! Reggae Fish that's a really nice stand & canopy!! Nicely done there with the wiring too! Looks good guy's great job . I really like the canopy how you hide the fans, that's nice. Lonnie are you viewing his canopy?? I'm liking it alot. :D

Yes I have view this stand and conopy. Matter of fact I think I showed you the web page once before.

Reggae Fish what is the link for the stand/canopy again?
 
oooh oooh I got a question!

Your VHO's in the back of the canopy.....why are the stacked above each other like that? Wouldn't the one on top end up having his light output limited?
 
I will get more pics up soon as I'm almost ready. Water is testing out well.
Need to:
Program my AC Jr.
Hide wires
Hook up the 2 phosban reactors and denitrinator
Get a new pump for the skimmer as it didn't work when I plugged it in.
I need to figure out my sump levels.

Here is my new skimmer. Euro-Reef RS-180

Here is my setup currently. Will obviously be cleaning it up.

Is it ok to keep the ballast in a highly humid area like the sump area in your stand? I have no idea, it just doesn't seem to be the best place to put it
 
Thanks Rena! It took a lot of peoples help!

Levon15- I'm not sure yet. I don't really have a place to put it so I'm hoping for the best. The back is open, I don't think I'll have any lighting downlow (cheato) so I'm just going to monitor the situation an hopefully I'll be ok. Might just need a small clip fan but I think it will be ok
