upgrading to 292+ Starphire

Tonight I started taking down the canopy. Remove metal highlights and vho lighting .
Now the real work begins !
As you can see in the picture .
After I moved the tank from its location I will have to do some drywall repairs.
So this doesn’t happen again I will be installing 2 4 x 8 seats of PVC plastic behind the tank to prevent damage .

This looks identical to Mike's build. I have seen his in person and it is stunning. It appears you are taking a similar track. As for your questions about the Aqua Controller by Neptune, I love my AC Jr. I only wish I would have had the foresight to buy the AC 3 instead of making my impluse buy. O well.
Couple questions
1. What touch screen are you thinking of using and where will it be located? Ie will it be splash protected?
2. What cameras are you going to integrate with it and how? I am interested in doing this at my house.
3. Did you make a decision yet on the controllers? Here is a good link just in case you haven't seen it yet. http://www.aquariumcontrollers.com/

here's a picture with the system 90% up all I need is to hook up the controller already have remote access from a laptop to the system more detailed to come.

I love the computing set up, but are you worried about corrosion with it being that near to the tank??
