looking good! Is that your return on the outside, or is one on the inside also going to be a return?

 

[W Ellis]

The 1 on the outside is the return.

 

[triggerfish1976]

Wow. Its looks like you are going to have that up and running soon.

 

[W Ellis]

Im trying. I am hoping to have it all ready to go for when the overflow is done. I will just have to drill some holes for the returns, silicone the overflow/starboard, and glue all the plumbing together. Im thinking i will let the silicone cure for 24 hours and start putting water in it.

I plan on sanding the drywall tomorrow night and should be spraying texture saturday. Should have paint round it all sunday. Its a shame it took this tank to motivate me to ge the living room done that has been torn apart for like 9 months.

I should. I ran my ER RS250 in that sump.

 

[Kubi]

I am sure you have the room in the sump but what about getting it into the sump?

All great things come with time. But it's like being 6 years old and waiting for Santa on Christmas Eve every day for months.

 

[W Ellis]

Yes it is. And i still have atleast a month before stocking the tank.

 

[mammyjammy0]

Gives you all the time in the world to shop for really really cool stuff. I saw a post somewhere says Fort Myers club is having a frag-stava-ganza soon. I think October. Check it out can't remember which post I saw it in but it sounds like big stuff!

 

[W Ellis]

I will look for that. Thank you.

 

[forddna]

9 months??? You let it sit for 9 months, and you're going to have this whole deal wrapped up in like 9 days! LOL

Looks awesome!

 

[W Ellis]

I do construction/ maintenance for a living and i get burned out when i do it during the day and come home and do it too. Theres nothing like a little incentive...lol

 

[CMcNeil]

i know exactly what you mean Billy
take your time and do it right,but the incentive is all of the stocking you get to do

 

[W Ellis]

Ya this tank should be a blast to stock.
