LED build failed. Those stab connectors aren't very good at making contact. Going to have to try to find my 25 year old soldering iron and do it like a boss.

Rock came today from Eli. Can't say I've ever been excited to receive a box of rocks before!

22 lbs Pukani, 35 lbs Branch, Thanks Eli!

Glad you received it well.Now have fun putting it all back together like the video or close to remember don't get frustrated just enjoy it as I told you earlier your setup is the most elaborate aquascape...the heat is on:biggrin:
How did the FijiCrete make it hope with no punctures.

Dem's some wild lookin' rocks

Fijicrete survived unscathed. Actually I was very happy with the condition of the whole package. No rubble to speak of and all the branches were intact. Great pack job Eli!
Do you think it would be possible to use a Dremmel to shape the pukani, or just a chisel and mallet?

I know right? I hope I can bring my vision to life! Stay tuned, probably going to cook it this weekend. Lots of rainy day projects for this guy! Woot woot!

You can use any tool with a sharp end but to do a precise job and a dremel is available I would say yes its the tool for the job.

All in all I think the baths went quite well as all the rock came out very white!

Soaking it in freshwater overnight and will begin drying tomorrow.

Rocks are drying but I can still smell a little bleach. Is this normal? Should I rinse them again? Any insight would be helpful.

Met tang daddy at J&L and picked up a Vertex Libra from him. Deal included 3 dosing vessels that I was sure would not fit in my stand.
Got home and lo and behold they just squeezed in... Yay!
Thanks Chris!

Seems I can't stop in at J&L without buying something... ended up coming home with an Apex Lab grade system.

Need to do a leak test on the entire system next. Been dreading it, but I'm sure everything will turn out ok.

Thanks for looking.

Warren, system is coming along nice man. Glad to see the doser actually fit!

Thanks Chris, I'm really happy that it did!

Finally got around to finishing the LED utility lighting properly.

Here's tang daddy's Libra doser installed along with the LED lights.

Colours don't show up great on my camera (Nikon Coolpix L120) but you get the idea. I should try playing around with the white balance I guess.
Wire management is one of the next jobs. Also, a full leak test is scheduled for this coming weekend then it's on to aquascaping with the rock.
The only major purchase left is the lighting. Still undecided on 2 Kessil A360's, or a Hamilton Tech 6x39w T5.

Thanks for looking. Comments/input welcome!
