I am very impressed with your planning. Planning and seeing how much of your plan changes, or in other words is very exact is almost a hobby in itself.
You did a great job! Thank you for sharing your work
Your welcome and thank you very much.
Looking great Alpha! Everything turned out as plan. The tank looks amazing.
Thanks Mav... now I need to get it looking like your tank! Beautiful!!
I love the fade on the back wall.
Cheers, I am very happy with so far.
Amazing build! Love the great planning and attention to details and finish
May I ask what material your cabinet doors are made of?
Thank you. Cabinet doors are wood painted with lacquer paint from memory.
I like all of your hard work and dedication.
On a quick note this tank has many many many details that are simply excellent, one that I think might not work is the pump in the overflow to maintain flow at the base of the overflow and avoid that particular deadspot.
As a suggestion( perhaps the actual holes on the PVC may have to be bigger to accomodate for excess debris and so forth that may clog the holes( even against pressure)- the pump inside the overflow is genius but can you access it to address detritus and maintenance?
Gasman... great to hear from you. Yes, I also fear that the pump may not be strong enough but will give it a go. The current holes are drilled small to allow me to assess and make larger if required (which I suspect). The piping is not glued together to allow ease of removal.
I was planning on not having much sand back there as most should be hidden by the rock but will have to wait and see.
It is a bit hard to see from the picture but there is enough room for me to access, undo the union on the check valve and pull out the pump for any required maintenance.
Of course, if you (or others) have any suggestions/concerns please mention because any input is greatly appreciated.
Soooo sweet!
I'm very jealous!
Congratulations!
Thank you but please don't be.
where can i get these led strip lights:dance:
Cool looking LED lights. Will these fasten to your ATI? If so, how? Where did you pick these up. I've got two T5 fixtures and would consider doing to same thing if they looked aesthetically pleasing on the fixture itself.
Thanks!
I bought them here in Hong Kong. Many different types available.
mouth watering everything andrew! you did a great job from planning to realization!
mimi definitely did a very good job! she did your winch too right? im still thinking if im going to get a light lifter as i might have a light rack constructed
Thank you Vic. It is slightly larger than I was expecting but no complaints.
Mimi is the one to contact for the background but she did mention that she probably wont do anymore as it was a real hassle. Ask anyway.
Yep, I designed the light box and they provided the light lifter and had the box made.
