let go man get the pictures going

wow just saw this thread... dont know how I missed it but I cant believe how fast your going at it! very impressive workmanship as well!

Look fwd to seeing more pics of you completing this monster build

Special for you Mike, as we all know what a Skimmer whore you are and you love the pics, how about a pic of a skimmer! The water supply, air supply and collection cup drain are all plumbed into the wall (air not finished yet) when done all you will see is a foaming cylinder in the corner, all the lines are hidden from view. I am working on LED backlighting so it will be a glowing cylinder of foam :silly:

Hahaha that would make this a truly unique build! A glowing 5' tall skimmer!

omFG yes man you the man .... tanks buddy

looks like the leg of your stand is leaning out to the left from the tank. Is this just me?

Lighting the skimmer is an awesome idea! +1 on the wierd angle of the leg...

I can't get over how fast this is going up! Excellent job and you have some really unique ideas.

Looking good Dave. Love those blue walls, and the backlit skimmer is a cool idea. By the time I get home you'll have the fish in for sure.

I believe the fish are in now...I'm kicking myself for missing all the fun :redface:

Thought you would like that one, still lots of work to go, I will get more pics up on Sunday.

You would lean too if you were holding up 7500lbs:boink: In fact the leg is leaning but is not supporting anything, It will be trimmed and straightened when the skirting goes on.

Thanks, once in a lifetime opportunity to do it the way I dream, I want it done right once, no re-do for me.
