Steven's 360gl Starphire inwall Project

[KaBoOm]

The tank looks sweet! You are going to love the Sfiligoi Lighting, the fixtures are really well designed, they give off such a low amount of heat it's amazing. The ACLS system is very cool!

Can't wait to see more pics!

 

[grallster]

I'm guessing the lighting was a little bit on the expensive side!
If I sound jealous...it's because I am!

 

[pennyguy23]

Ya but it was well worth I think. And they are better for the:fish2: :fish1:

 

[RonBuck]

Boy do you have patience.

I would have had those lights hanging over my stove by now just to see them working, until my tank was ready for them lol

 

[moonpod]

Hey Steven....look familiar?

 

[pennyguy23]

You bought some? Thanks GREAT. How many did you get? Did you guy the pendant too?

 

[moonpod]

just one for now. No pendant. I've already got my LAIIIs mounted an all. There's a place around here that has a very limited stock. So I got the ballast, but they don't have the quick connects. I've got an email out to Will about that. Hopefully he'll help me out with the quick connect. Otherwise...it's splice 'orama....granted I could make my own quick disconnects...

I'm gonna run it on the center light and turn it on first and off last.

 

[pennyguy23]

Thanks an expensive peice to splice. That definitly will void the warrenty. I bet Will will hook you up with something. Thanks cool that you got one though

Where can you buy the reef ceramic structures from?

Be sure to take lots of pics with the ceramic structures in there! I am really considering buying some for my 300g. Good thread BTW.

Great project!!! love the design!!

 

[pennyguy23]

Well I finally have the house done and the tank so now I can concentrate on some much needed down time. I will get you all some pictures of it very soon. It looks Great. I am very happy with how it turned out. But it seemed like every step of the way something went wrong. It was a royal pain in my keesh. But like I said. Looks good.

 

[moonpod]

Steve, lemme tell ya...the ACLS is just too cool!

 

[pennyguy23]

Here we go. These are from last week. Everything is done now. Even some fish. I will take some newer ones. Been very busy.

Tank

Sfiligoi Lighting. These were pretty tricky to figure out but I think I finally got'em. Thanks Aquariumobsessed.com

ACLS Units

2" drains with 1.5" returns

Sump and all the equipment

Geo Protein skimmer

Kalk reactor and Chiller. Which almost burnt down my house today. NEVER buy something used from some you don't know. It almost cost me a new home and tank. :eek2:

 

[steve68]

looks good steven
one question why did u make a "U" on ur drain?

 

[pennyguy23]

I made the traps in my drain to help with the bubbles and splashes it would create if I were to just let it drop 14ft straight down. And it still looks like a whirlpool sometimes.

 

[binaryterror]

PICS!!! MORE PICS!!!

 

[Conceyted]

[AZreefkeeper]
