Parker's 265 Build - Thread Retired

[Parker]

We have book shelves in the office, there will be no books allowed on these shelves! lol

Not a ship in a bottle, but a tall ship something like this:

[michika]

That is much better then a ship in a bottle!

[Parker]

Got a little bit more done today:

I had the tank on a wooden stand so I raised it up and put it on my dollies then rolled it over to the stand that I raised to an inch lower then the tank then slid it from one stand to the other.

I did a really bad job of stitching two photos together to get an idea what it would look like.. I couldn't resist the urge to throw a light up there.

Holey cupboard space batman!!

Not much to report theses days, still waiting on a few things to show up.

Here is about a 1/4 of my rock. ECO Rock from Bulk Reef Supply


I was originally planning a to use a GEO reactor but it ended being about an inch too tall.. I found a pretty good deal on a used PM locally so I picked it up.

[Parker]

Well,

Just suffered a huge set-back...

[Skimmerking]

dude sorry to see that, good luck in getting it fixed

[mark]

oh no!

what the heck happened?

[Parker]

Well,

It was my own stupidity, I was hanging the lighting inside the canopy frame that I built to see how everything lined up, hight etc. I had it the light lit pulled it off the canopy set it on the brace, got distracted..and pop.

I have to find a way to fix the tank. I can't get another tank in my basement, I had to remove a wall to get this one in and that's not happening again.
