Next I revised my power box slightly due to the change in the new metal stand height and installed at same time :idea:

New power boxâ€"œ front:

New power boxâ€"œ back:

I also used the same rail for my power box so that I can easily slide out the whole panel for easy removing or installing any plug points…I also lower the rail a little to ensure my 2” return are able to go through back to the main tank without obstructing the rail operation.

Power box with rail pull out:

Yup, i want to see that bad boy rocking. Hey did you get the tunze 6301 as well right?

 

[Ed Reef]

No Jar*Head...only 2 x 6201.... but spoke to Roger of Tunze and he assure me I should get about 1-1.5" wave...

 

[Jar*Head]

That is for sure. When Roger said 1-1.5", normally you will get more

Ed, great idea on the powerbox. Any plans to protect it from possible water leaks?

Not much thoughts on this honestly as the powerbox is quite a distant (about 70cm) from the sump tank and all the plugs are above ground (about 20cm) so I'm kind if hoping it will be enough.... The only possible area for leaks will be my return area so maybe to be extra safe, I will build a water proof container under my return pump area....what do you think??

 

[Jar*Head]

Ed, love your power panel...

 

[Ed Reef]

Thanks Jar*Head.... one of my goal for this tank is to hide all those wires under the cabinet and at the same time make it easy accessible...

The Challenge for all of us without a fish room...

 

[Jar*Head]

Look like you are in the right track

SANTA CAME KNOCKING AT MY DOOR….…!!

SANTA CAME KNOCKING AT MY DOOR….…!!

12 April, 2008 (Saturday)

Wow….not getting much sleep lately and today was no exception. Took half day off work today to ‘welcome my tank …..

Inspected the tank and so far no scratches found… I’m also quite please with the build quality

Anyway, I guess pictures speaks a thousand words..

'Ding'....Elevator doors open…

OK…everyone move aside so that I can take a picture for RC…

Took 8 strong men to carry this bad boy…!!

 

[Ed Reef]

Picture of tank â€"œ whole:

Picture of tank â€"œ top:

The eurobrace is cut out from one single piece of 15mm glass so to avid a center brace….this will also make the eurobracing stronger…

Close-up of joints:

Ummm…and ONE..and a TWO….and a THREE…hmmm....boy... this is heavy…:mixed:

 

[Ed Reef]

On stand:

Oh yeah, they brought my fresh water reservoir tank as well, which will act as a stand alone as this makes it easier for me to remove for cleaning, whenever it’s required.

Have not decided what pump to used for my ATO â€"œ most probably will get one of the local Atman brand pump available here….

Next…
