Looks great! From the video is seems pretty loud- any idea why?

Just out of curiosity, are you an engineer of some kind? I ask because the level of detail and neatness in your work is outstanding! Very cool tank.

Not really, although it was an iPhone vid so the audio isn't usually that great.

Mechanical yes but in this hobby wish I was Electrical.

Thanks for the kind words.

Trying to keep things neat as it's just so much easier to maintain and keep clean down the road.

im electrical and my wiring ect is a mess!

 

[Ridgeway Swiss]

Argh so it's a dentists kids teeth thing....

Must admit that having it all tiled helps

Your technical room looks impressively organized! Amazing build! Tagging along

Very nice tank, well done!

Very clever to build a wooden frame of your tank to figure out how to aquascape the rocks later on, and just to see its impressive size. Always had the same tactic in my head when I want to start a tank again.

Keep us update

This... this is very cool. I will need to follow along!
