Spent a few hrs today separating dual pane glass to make a couple cube tanks for ro storage & salt mixing. Going to build 2 20"x20"x18" tanks. I drilled the bottom for a drain. Not sure how I am going to set them up yet. Be a stand if some sort. Still have to build them and water test anyway.

Still waiting for taxes to finish the build (lights & MP-40) but picked up a RO/DI & took the glass I had sitting around and make 2 20"x20"x18" storage/mixing tanks.
Here are the photos: http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...1/52b3830e.jpg http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...1/fd54b06b.jpg http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...1/b1e4f11c.jpg http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...1/4e51e15c.jpg |
Looking good man I see you have your HH caulking on hand lol good show

With the possibility of my lights & MP40 being here tomorrow I hauled 24 5gal buckets of water up the stairs this evening & got the tank filled & running with RO/DI water. Will start mixing the salt in the tank tomorrow when I get a chance to grab a bucket. Thinking of maybe moving from my IO to Reef crystals... Thoughts?

Tank full & running since thursday, added enough salt to bring it to 1.025 . Added a Finnex 300W heater for now, running it with a RKL unit. Water temp is sitting at 78F, much cooler than my 33 gal that tends to stay around 81F. Checked KH, Mg, & Ca this morning. KH around 10, Ca at 360 & Mg at 1110. I am trying to get Mg to 1300 & Ca to 420. will check things again tomorrow, hopefully lights show up & it will be time to move things over & then try and drain and clean up the other tank. Getting much closer!

Radions arrived today!! Finally time to do the move of live stock. That will happen tomorrow eve.

Man what a morning, needed to top up the 120 gal. Went & broke the bottom pane of the water storage tank when doing so. Ug..
|
Now that I have everything from the 33gal transferred into the 120 I figured I should post a FTS:
