I was just talking to Jeremy tonight about "my additives"
How is the new display coming along? I might need to bring you a few things one of these weekends.

Well I hope to finish plumbing the CL Oceans motion today. Those suckers take up a ton of space (luckily I have a Large canopy) but I have had it just sitting for over a year so I figured I would put it to use. Hopefully I will have the tank full of water by the end of the week but I won't bet on it:lol:

Isn't it fun!
I had an external overflow, which meant the tank was already sitting a bit further from the wall, so I just hung mine off the overflow. Didn't have any lines running near the lights that way. It's better to have the head unit above the water line, but that can make taking the drum out a challenge, as there will be a vapor lock on it, with the weight of the water pulling it down. I ended up putting a union on one of the lines(above the water line) so that I could break the vapor lock before even attempting to service the drum. Put some thought into it and you'll avoid having to "fix" it later.:lol:Underwaterparadise

Ya I have no room behind the tank at all so the OM feed line is plumbed through the OF box and the unit itself sits just above it. The bad part is since it's a penissula tank I need flow at the front end so there will be about 4' of PVC on each side running along the euro bracing. I will more then likely have heat issues so I will be adding a chiller before summer.
Good looking out on the vapor lock issue, I was debating on putting unions on the two 4' sections under the canopy for easy removal, I think you just ended the debate for me

I understand that. Almost did the same myself. As for the debate, no question, add the unions. Sometimes you may want to pull the section for easier access to the tank.

Just saw this tank in person. The drool factor is off the charts. I would've loved to take a frag of everything if I could :lol: Now I am truly inspired to make my tank better.
