Mark's 180 Starfire upgrade

Just a little tease

Just a little tease

What a day. I left at 5:00 am this morning and I just got home about a half hour ago. 987 miles round trip :crazy1:

HOLY CRAP! Where the heck is Lee-Mar located? 987 miles is crazy...

At least you have your tank now. Look forward for more updates.

Btw, have you decided on lights?

Mark, we need pics of the tank!! I know you are tired, but we don't care!!

Jay- Lee Mar is located in Vista, Ca which is down past Camp Pendola. It was a long day.

I still have not made my decision on my lighting. I am going to wait until my canopy is complete so I can see exactly the ease of use would be if I went reflectors and VHO's. I think I will have about 13-14 inches of inside clearance. I can go pretty much any way I'd like and I would not be limited in the future in case I change my mind. Like any reefers ever do that.

Sang- Here, I just went and took one just for you.

Hehe nice! When will the stand be ready?

 

[mpoletti]

I am planning on doing some more work on the stand weekend. Lance said he would try to work on the doors this week, so who knows. I want be able to finish the woodwork and start the staining.
I will be mock building the system in my garage until the big day. That way I can work out the kinks with the plumbing and such.

Just because you go pages on your thread without any pics doesn't mean you can go requesting pics over here

I will try to get some pics tomorrow, but I need to get a couple buddies over to unload the tank.

Thanks Tim.

I am a little exhausted this morning. I guess I need to get the tank out of the truck and into the garage today.
