Back in the Saddle Again!! My new 480g In-Wall thread

All done. :)

Brent, you should feel free to post and participate on the board as you so desire and have the time. We don't restrict people from using the board, demanding they be a member. Some people associate with the club for a year or longer before finally officially joining. I have a feeling from getting to know you that it won't be nearly that long.

We've got a good support group, and you should feel free to lean on us and get some help when necessary.

Marc,
I didn't want to intrude your guy's board too much since I haven't officially been able to join yet.


What do you mean YOUR board??? Whether you officially joined or not, anyone who puts together a system like this is a member by proxy. ;) And by the way, you can't use the everything is big in Texas excuse!

Darn. I typed that up a long time ago, and wish I could just point you to the link. Since I use the word "club" so often, a search won't find it.

The club is a huge perk for local hobbyists. You have someone to lean upon when things go wrong during the night or day. You learn tricks that save you money or simplify your tank's needs. You have a network of people spotting great deals. You can purchase stuff in bulk and divvy it up. You can do group buys and divide shipping evenly. You have a group to visit with monthly in person, to just talk about what you love. And more...

Yes, find your local club. If you go to MASNA.org, you can look at the national club database to see if one is near you. Your location is a tad vague to me, so I can't help.
 
Looking good Brent!

@Marc : Lol, where were all the texas reefers when I visited Waxahachie 3 years ago! Bummer cause I really wanted to check out some of the LFS when I was out there for 2 weeks.
 
We were here! You just need to let us know in advance, and we'll point you toward some choice destinations. :)
 
Well Steve over at www.socalcreations.com posted some pics of the tank being manufatured. I am thinking that we are getting pretty close to a bullet proof enclosure,whatcha think?

BTW Brent your tank--based on the pics-- looks really good! :)
 
Well, the tank should be arriving at the terminal this afternoon and I will be trailering it home from Dallas to my house her in Rockwall. I finally got a chance to do some more work on the fish room. The outside is basically done, all of the moldings and trim and also the front hatch is complete. Here is the sketch from the first page of this thread.

I must first thank my wife for putting up with my mess and the patience to see me rip a hole in our new house. I am having some of my friends from work come by Sat. to help lift the tank onto the stand. The tank has 2 2'' drains 2 1 1/2" bulkheads also in the overflow and also two 1 1/2" holes in the rear panel for a closed loop. I will be using my seq 5800seq23 for my return and pushing it back into the tank through my 8way oceans motion. And lastly but not least I have four streams that will be helping puch the flow back and forth. I will post some pics once the tank arrives and I know I must have the required kids in the tank shot, I am just wondering if I can shove my whole family in it!!!
