Just because we all have pretty slow builds.. we post an update to our threads every couple months or so.... we aren't in a race.

Small update,

Got my controller mounted up and plugged in. I toyed with having the EB8's on the front panel but I decided to put them behind to keep everything looking a little neater.

Here's what it looks like behind the scenes of the electrical cabinet.

The back of the front panel:


EB8 on the right hand side, I need to get two more in there yet.


I put a bulkhead in the cabinet for the PH/ORP/ Temp probes to pass through:

Looking really good, you've done a very neat job with everything so far!

Thanks.. I've tried to build it neat so I don't have to go back later and clean it up.. I'm happy with the way it's turning out.

Tried my hand at aquascaping today. I ditched the foam and rock wall project, my next thought was pillars but I have a lot of small pieces which didn't stack that well.. so I went with the minimalist look...


Thoughts:

[Delphinus]

It's good - I think you'll like it because it gives the corals a good space to grow INTO.

[karazy]

it looks good, the only problem i see with it is lack of hiding places for fish

I love your setup, from the first tank, to smashing it and now the new one... Keep up the great work!

YOU NEED MORE ROCK!
