Parker's 265 Build - Thread Retired

[Parker]

So I didn't get all the cords made up the other night, in fact I only started tonight.. I picked up 250' of 18/3 and a bunch of ends.. The ends are way more then I thought they would be.. $10.00 for each pair, one male, one female! Got my halides all plugged into the controller. Man, this doing things neat thing is time consuming! Took me 3 hours to get everything wired and zip-tied for three plugs!

Very nice Robb. It takes a lot of back-breaking effort down there but you do it once and everytime you open that stand up you're going to be glad you did it.

I have a similar pile of sawdust in the back of my stand beside the dart. Been meaning to vacuum it out.

Did you ever tweak your rock setup or is it unchanged?

Thanks, it's getting there.

Nah, I haven't touched the aquascape yet, still the way it was. Maybe I'll get to that once the mile long honey-do list is finished.

I don't know about you... but my list keeps getting longer, never shorter.

Until you've gotten the list that references another list you're still livin' THE DREAM.

Started to rework the aquascape today, I built four pillars that I hated. Here's the one that made it into the tank. I still have to work on the aquaspace for the center and right side of the tank.









Here's what it looks like behind the scenes..

Wow! That's like the Mt. Everest of saltwater.
Nice job on the rock; it looks to be plenty stable.
