Hiding wires is nice until you have to pull something out for maintenance Thats when you ask yourself, why did I do it like this hahahhaa

if something goes wrong it will be easy to remove the panels,we made 6 individual pieces that take all of 3 minutes to remove.

I had to remove a couple of panels to add a fan and it was no problem at all. The thing is you have to remember how everything is run uo there

I wanted to go for a real clean look so I came up with Idea of covering the underside of my stand to hide all the wires. My friends CMcNeil (Chris) and Kubi (Paul) came over to help me

Great job hiding the clutter that wires and plumbing create. I love clean setups. This will be another awesome build to follow.:thumbsup:

Thanks for the compliment I hatr clutter

 

[brucem]

I will try to get some tank shots up. I got some new fish also

 

[GlassReef]

Great job, Bruce. That i-Tech skimmer is sweet. I'm lovin' your Masterflex P-Pump - they are perfect for our hobby? Hope you don't mind if I steal your idea of covering the underside of your stand. That's a great look!

 

[brucem]

Tom steal away. The materflex is the only way to run a calcium reactor. Thanks for the compliment

where did you get those foam cored pvc panels?

they are called trovicel and most plastics fabrication shops or sign makers should have it or can get it.
