Apex Power Extention

[RogueSnail]

Had to do the plugs with 3 different pliers.
The wire was so stiff took me about 4hrs.

Always secure your wires.

I used an old extension and twisted the wires to check my circuits.

 

[RogueSnail]

Took the outside isolation of cheap wire to cover the exposed part.

 

[RogueSnail]

Then cut the desired length .
And put the 24 plugs on.

Took me the whole day but the result is satisfying ...:bounce2:



Now I have proximity plugs for my lights ,left and right side with a 3 inch channel for cords and what not to hide in.



Coming from 3 GFCI's on 3 separate dedicated breakers in the panel.
All my outlets are shielded.

It's been 2 weeks since I made this thing.
Time for a water rest with flow.
The 1/2 inch Acrylic makes it really silent ,
you can hear a big difference when I open the doors.

Got the Apex watching over while I sleep tonight.

Hope the JECOD holds up, it's a rebuilt.

Very nice attention to detail and nice pics documenting the progress. What's the main tanks size?

 

[RogueSnail]

Thank you

I started with the idea of getting the 300 DD from Marineland ,it just doesn't fit down the stairway to my basement , so I opted for the 180gl 72x24x24 .
Total system would be over 225gl since the sump holds 45gl at 8 inches .
Not too big to clean and maintain, it's a considerable jump from my current 93g cube.

Killed my refugium today and added AF activated carbon .






UV sterilizer is probably gonna go away too .

Made a quick automatic sand cleaner with some 5gl buckets.




Not sure if I'm gonna keep the sand tho.
