Schnitzel's Shallow Leemar 250




All that work on plumbing and painting just for this...can u see the pipes??? Lol.

Obviously u can see the pipes, but at least they don't stand out. Plumbing this tank was seriously the hardest work I've ever put into the hobby so far. Part of the reason was I had John build my sump with 3 holes in the top for the drain pipes. That made it super hard to plumb. If one of the pipes was off an inch or two, it wouldn't fit in the hole. I probably have a total of 10-15 hours of strait plumbing on this tank. Took me the whole week to get it done. From cutting to painting. But at least I know it was done right and it looks damm good too.
