The 125 process has begun... Pictures!

[Micki]

We have things in motion for the 125! Here are a few pictures to get started. I am also working on a web page. When there is enough to look at I will post it!
Here are some pictures of the new sump room.

Here are some of the tank and stand. My Dad and his buddy built the stand and canopy! The canopy opens on both sides for feeding. This is a room divider tank, so I need access to both sides.

 

[Micki]

Here are both tanks side by side. And a few view from the foyer of the back side of the tank.

Hey Micki, great looking start. My tank is also a room divider. Great idea on access from both sides. I have only one side open and its causing me problems. Love the cab shouts, looks like great woodworking. Keep the pics coming.

 

[Micki]

Thanks! This is going a lot faster than I thought it would! I had hoped to have the tank set up by the end of April!

Here are some pictures of the MH lighting that we are in the process of installing. 3x250 watt XM 10k. My husband put c channel on the reflector then drilled holes in the canopy, hot glued wooden dowels and the slide the c channel over the dowels. Makes for easy removal if necessary! He hot wired one to see what it would look like. WOW and to think I have two more to add to that plus 4 65 watt pc's??? W O W!!!
