Glenn if you need any plumbing parts I have a box of leftover parts and flex hose. The only 1" PVC I have is about 2' long but there is a bunch of other stuff. Let me know what you need and I'll take a look through it.

Dang I just bought a 10 foot length from HD. ohh well it was only $5. But for Albert I'll give him the left over for $20

Got the tank plumbing done now and the back and bottom painted. I had to go with a darker blue than I originally wanted to but it was the closest I could get. Krylon Fusion $6.97 @ wallyworld. White on the bottom and Blue on the back.

Next is to cut out the top to fit the plumbing and then attaching it to the 2x4 framework. I will hang the 175W MH light from a telescoping tube that will attach to the back of the stand.

Stage one is done. Tank is in and filled, live rock has been placed (not as nice as I want but I'm tired) Fishies are in and seem to be happy.

Did you move existing LR from a previous tank into the new tank?

Yes and we moved the new tank to the same spot in the house. It was a pain to do at the same time but it looks as though everything made it (so far)
