Frags 120 gallon reef room divider (LOTS of pics added April 8, 10)

I was in the process of making my doors and thought I would stop in at the local Revy store on Southland Drive in calgary.

I picked up the perfect sized doors for my stand for $2.00 each - yes that is correct $2.00. As well I got panels fror the back side and end.

Anyone who lives in Calgary that requires cabinet doors needs to go there ASAP. They have hundreds of doors for sale at 2 to 5 bucks. I dont think they will be there for long - I was told they are going to donate whatever doesnt sell.

I got a chance to build the sump this weekend - all in all it went faily well. A few pics of the build process.







Prepping of the seams for nice joints!



Use duct tape to hold it together till it dries.



This is the stuff I used. It is the product that one of the local main tank suppliers uses for all of their tanks.





And it starts to go together. The seams will look way better once the tape comes off.



Baffles in place





Its complete!





Couple of mods - not typical.



Wahooooo - it hold water yeaaaaa

I will place it in the stand tonight and get started on the plumbing this week.

Decided this weekend that the three visable are going to be starfire glass

A real nice feature is that you can shut off any given item with just a flick of a switch.

So i put my tank and stand up for sale expecting it to take a bit for it to sell. Well the next day after listing it I sold it to a person I do work for. 2 hours later I got an email responding to the add. I told him that I sold it already sorry. Well to my surprise he offered me 75.00 more than what I was asking for it - lucky me!

A good thing/bad thing though he was coming into town the next day and wanted to pick it up. Problem for me is I had no place for my current live stock. So out I went trying to find a temp. tank till I ordered and got mine. I managed to pick up a 55 gallon tank with overflow which I needed. That night I worked till 4:00am getting my live stock out of the tank and into a new home.

I was selling only the tank and stand and was planning on keeping my light. When he showed up he made me an offer to sell everthing which I couldnt refuse.

Next problem - now I have no light, out shopping again.

I managed to get a Giesemann Infinity - LUCKY ME!

Well this past week has been soooooo busy getting this all looked after but It all turned out for the better.

I have ordered my tank and it should be here in the next week or so. 120 gallon 3 side starfire. This thing is going to look great.

Couple of shots of how I got things running for the time being.





I just love the look of this light, and the light colors is amazing!
