OK, update time, been working on a little tid bit of a feature that is absolutely pointless and unnecessary, but I like it. More importantly my wife likes it :)

I added some cove molding to the faux wall that many of you saw on the tank tour. And inside the molding put in some up lighting. I will post more pics as we get further along, but i thought I would show you all what it looks like.

I recently bought a Reef Keeper Elite, and started installing it tonight. I mounted all the modules on a piece of painted ply, with 5/8 spacers between it and the wood, this allowed me to hide all the BUS connections under the surface making it look a bit cleaner.

for all the picture junkies, here you go

ed, have you thought about pulling the pc-4's and drilling the wood to hide the power cords. i will say i'm jealous of the net module. as they say all in due time

Great question! Yes I did think of doing that. And I didn't because there is a screw mount right where the hole would need to be. And I didn't want a 1.25 inch hole (that's what it would take to push the power cord through) visible on the pretty white board.

Freaking DigitalAquatics, I think its a design flaw! lol ok just kidding

ed drill the 1.25 hole 1.75 in from the end then drill a .375 hole and slot back to the other. thus your plug hole will be under the pc 4 and the cord will fit snug. no visable holesand you can screw it just fine

There's already a 3/4 inch hole there for the bus cables
