![]() crazy build Greg. Only one major problem I can think of.
Your Display is " TOO SMALL" Lol with all the effort and equipment in the background, you should go for a Big Display tank. Hmmmm 210 or 300.

![]() Ha, ya I know. I actually sold my 125 last Nov. It didn't fit the livingroom well enough and I didn't like the deflection it caused to the floor

![]() I finished the 20g QT today. It's not pretty, and will never be.
I tried to use some 3/4" pipe with a union and such, but it was too snug. I wanted to avoid using hose for the algae issue but this is the most quiet and flexible setup. I have some 5" PVC for caves that isn't in the pics. It'll do the job. There's an AC50, an 8W UV w/Quiet One 1200 and Eheim 100W. Maybe it's overkill, maybe not. The QO 1200 is padded by a piece of filter material from J&L. I tested it in the sink and there's no way I'd ever have the suction cups holding the pump in the tank. And, ya, I wasted $15 on one of those Hagen surface skimmers for the Aquaclear. I'm a sucker for gimmicks ![]() It'll all be run by an RKL as I had it already. The heater and UV/pump have their own GFCIs plugged into the RKL ![]() ![]() And of course, everyone wants to see the prints my Dad made ![]() Here's, from right to left, the QT, new water tank, and nothing else worth describing ![]() Last edited by gregzz4; 04-27-2012 at 05:29 AM. |

![]() What do you mean by this? I'm hoping my tank won't be too heavy for my floor

The tank was against a 2x6 load-bearing wall, but the joists span 12' If I was worried about it I would have installed a jack post or a support wall downstairs, but I didn't want another storage room in the recroom ![]() Both an Engineer and a builder friend told me to relax, but don't have a dozen people in the living room at one time |
