Swimming pool conversion into Reef Aquarium

[dirk_brijs]

we have also started creating different levels on the bottom of the pool to create a more natural look underneath the water level.


and still the gaping hole waiting for the glass floor of the big sala to be installed

I really hope when you are done we not only get some pics but also a walk through video. I am completely impressed with this build...

Beautiful design and workmanship! I was wondering why the one building is so short?

 

[Oldude]

Nice progress - looks really cool. :eek2:

Beautiful design and workmanship! I was wondering why the one building is so short?

reason for this design is that that the small one is sitting at the main entrance way to the project so if we would place a large one there it would block the view to the entire project when walking into the project.. makes sense?

very cool concept.

When do you add water?

we hope to add water this Friday or Saturday.
floor levels have been completed and rest of floor will be covered by the resting liner. From that point we can add water and let it run through the system to check on all water features and start treating the water.

Good work and good luck.
