This is embarrassing.

Early 2006 I built a peninsula upstairs. Late 2006 I began building a 400 gallon downstairs and moved the ~70 gallon (which never looked that great to begin with) down as well so I could reno the main floor. I haven't had anything living in a tank since late 2006. The 400 was cut apart and sold (I filled it once to leak test) and the wall torn down to sell the house.

Check out that sweet ro/di feed to my sump!

The new tank is SEXY! Well done. I'm a sucker for a nice trimless tank with careful attention to detail like that.

Your install is beautiful Mark. A real shame about the bad run of luck but obviously you're capable and will have it looking as good again. Your stand with the 3 pockets underneath...exactly what I had planned to to only I was going to have two pockets and use the same tile I did but in the pockets as well. If I were you I'd buy a few sch 80 elbows and swap out those returns as they stick out quite a bit.

Hmmm...they did. I see they're fairly encrusted now =)
