Completed stand minus door handle but with the brackets for the Ai. These are 18" above the tank height (which is 24") to give good working clearance.



And the sump plus ProfiLux controller shelf

So its build time wahoo

The tank arrived in one piece from Miracle aquariums in Toroto Canada, fantastic job, well made and all edges as they should be, the drill holes are really smooth too, not a single nick

All drains and returns are bonded in, and the stand pipe put together




Like the stand?





Peak-a-boo

Somone has been busy





If you want a sump built - Talk to Christian (Boboxx) take a look at this workmanship! Probe holders built in!



Yep its a squeeze alright!



Just add water! I have now run the RO line up through the central air ductwork and to the tank. The slow fill begins.

Ha patience dear friends, there is a splash of water in the bottom as i am still fine tuning things as below

So i spent the day in and out of hardware stores, and came up with this, it is a work in progress as you can see the lamps need to come forward by about 1 1/4" but that is eaily resolved.

Chris at Ai said the lamps need to be 6-8" above the surface for a 24" tank so will adjust these up once I have water in the tank

here are the prototype pics





Maybe that will give some other users some ideas
