Thank you Naso and oodle!
I am very please with the work on the Tank and sump from Clear Fabrications here in Washington State!
He is in the process of building my cone skimmer and I am anxious to see it and get it installed by the end of next week.

My thought exactly. Very clean indeed! :thumbsup:
Are you priming that PVC before cementing? If so, how are you able to keep the purple runs off the rest of your pipe?
Everytime I work with the stuff, however careful I am, it always runs.
Anyone know how to get the stuff off your fingernails?

Yes I primed it with the purple primer before cementing. I just ran the primer around the pipe and layed it down, while i did the inside of the joint, which i then turned on end, let it dry for a few then cement!
If you used the lil bush with the prime, then you wouldnt have had to finger paint, thus keeping it off your nails! LOL Just kiddin :rollface:

Well I am hoping to get the rest of the work done by the end of this week and get it filled up with RODI
Then I will need to get my water storage tanks plumbed and then the LED rack built. The LEDS are last on my list since I will be waiting for it to cycle before I can add anything.

Well this is just a teaser update as it's certainly teasing me.......LOL
after my water shutting down for most of yesterday, I figure by tomorrow evening I should be ready to turn on the pumps and heaters and then get the salt mixed!
Tank about 2/3 full
RODI Flowing In
Control Panel almost populated
