Alright small update started to build the canopy framed and skinned. Now the doors have to be built and do the trim. Then comes the staining.

I like how the doors open to the stand very creative

Thanx. I just wanted to ba able to get to everything under the stand without having any trouble. That's exactly the way the canopy will open as well .

 

[jose7878]

well just finished the canopy... time to paint it...

What are the dims on the canopy. Looks great!

 

[jose7878]

The dimensions are 72 x 18 x 21.

 

[reefermad619]

Damn! I've seen some stands that tall. Should look bad a$$ when it all put together.

Here's a pic of the tank nothing special....
72L x 18W x 27H W/dual overflow box 2 11 drains and 2 1" returns
The blue paint was scraped already it will be repainted in black..

It seems you'll need a bigger tank with the size of that yellow fish

 

[jose7878]

LMAO..... Ganjero didn't even notice that my daughter fish was back there.

 

[jose7878]

Well today did a little shopping...... Hehehe....
Picked up 2 pails of coral pro salt , 200lbs of aragonite , 3 sticks of epoxy glue , a new API reef test kit , some loctite super glue for fraging , 3 - 24" super actinic t5 bulbs and 1 - 24" actinic white t5 bulb

Well I got the tank , stand and canopy together.

Hopefully this weekend I will start to tear down my 90 cause the 150 is taking its location.

Thanx..Very exciting ... I will be tearing down the 90 tomorrow to make room for the 150...

Very nice stand & canopy build, nicely done.

 

[jose7878]

Went out yesterday and picked up a rubber storage container so that fish and corals have s holding area until I put their new home together.

Here are some random pics of the tear down of the 90 gal.

Start of the draining process

Fish,corals ,LR removed

A empty 90. Woo Hooooo

I Will be selling the 90 once I clean it , the funds of the sale will be going to a Apex controller.

 

[jose7878]

Here's the corals and fish in their temporary home for a month until the 150 is ready for them.

Going to have to start a sale thread with all the frags I have now. LOL

 

[jose7878]

Since the old tank was removed it gave me a opportunity to move some outlets to new locations.
Also gave me opportunity to give the wall a new coat of paint "what the hell lets do home improvements as I'm doing the tank" LOL.

Jose, after seeing the progress over the last few weeks, I'm more glad every day that my tank went to a good home. Keep it up!:thumbsup:
