Back to the stand! I hope to get it up and painted this weekend and finally assembled Monday night. My skimmer should be coming along too
Now I am really starting to need to figure out my drain/return situation. I am thinking 1.5 inch holes. 3 for drains and 2 for returns. Anyone with some input on this? Too much, just right, I have no clue
Lol elbow grease is opening cold ones!!! Rubbing the sweat off the bottles.
Used the pin method. On these sides being assembled I did more watching then helping. I have never built a tank before so I helped a bit but watched more. For the top and bottom though I will help more
Few pictures of painting the stand.
Happy Father's Day to me, my mom helping paint it
Thanks jack! I'm hoping another week or so for the tank. Pressure is on me to get the stand ready. Figure one more water change on my rock as it cycles then I should be good to go. I hope!!!
As I know all too well, the hard part is getting the stand just right. The tank can sit until everything else is perfect. I had my tank before I started on the stand, it about killed my patience, but I persevered.
Yes you did. That tank of yours is awesome. Yes you are right, the tank can wait if needed for a complete stand and cycle of rock. Skimmer should be getting built too.
Got the top put on and hoping the bottom will follow this weekend. Stand is almost finished too.
New dilemma I have, custom beckett skimmer from GEO or needlewheel skimmer. If the needlewheel my budget is about 750$. Any thoughts or recommendations?
