that scape is killer corey!!!!! How will you hang your lights? It looks like the ceiling fan will cause some issues for you.

 

[biecacka]

That fan is close but not in the way. I have some metal conduit that I bent that will support the light. I am going w a single radium to start. I hope to have some pictures posted of it by weekend.

All those chemicals together near the stove and hoping that the tank is empty or big things are going to happen.

 

[biecacka]

:lol: that co2 tank is empty and has been for awhile. It needs hydro tested. Other than that the chemicals are.....safe....
Hoping to finial filling the tank today and plumb it this weekend. I need to get the manifold plumbed up but shut it off to add online later.
My 3 little clownfish are dying to get in this tank!

wow, can we have some more photos of the aquascape? Looks like you did an awesome job, the dimensions of your tank really give you great options, thats what I love about our deep tanks.

Is this room on the ground floor?

 

[biecacka]

Yea I'll post some more of the rock work. Here is my conduit that I painted. It's going to hold my light.
