J.R.'s money pit build '540g

[JRChristiansen]

Today I start work on my newest build. The tank is 540g 6'x6'x24" I bought used and needs lots of TLC. I recently sold my old house with my old 360g reef with a bar. Now I'm at it again starting off with a new slate and new design. Let's see what I can come up with this time.

This should be good!

One night of sanding and buffing. I got one 6x6x2 inside panel done. This looks like it's going to be a long week lol.

That actually looks really good for one nights work! I've seen some that took much longer.

Can't wait to see it filled!
If you need any help once you get that buffing done, give me a call.
(If you need help with the buffing, call someone else:lol

Didn't get much done this evening. Only about 2 hours of sanding on the front inside panel.

Looks great. Labor of love right there.

Is it going to be a look down tank... Lol.

Nice tank!! What are you going to put inside it?

 

[smoothdog]

Strong work! They really did a number on that corner.

I thought that about the corner too, but I think it’s the paper scratched off the bottom of the tank. Optical illusion and looks like stress cracks.
