Thanks... Ya the love seat couch thing used to be where the tank is I didn't like the couch. About the time... I work 40-60 hours a week, I also run a small business with 7 people on the payroll (I don't seem to make much though it all goes to my employees.. oh well) I also have 2 dogs... that's why I'm going to Victoria, there is a dog show and my golden is competing... But the solution I found is only sleep like 2-4 hours a night... one of my favorite sayings "You can sleep when your dead"

It was my pleasure to come and help out. Can't wait to see it in a few months full of life. Give me a shout anytime if you need help and next time I'll bring the family down.

Sounds good. I probably won't need much help unless there is a crash... but your welcome to take the family down at some point... when there is something to look at.

Well one more major step along the way... Plumbing is 90% complete... I just have to wait for the nozzles to show up for final completion. But in my mind the plumbing is done... and if I had to I could run it without the nozzles. Now less than 2 weeks till I can start my cycle ... and if the parameters are right I will add fish on September 6th.

Anyways an update isn't an update without pics...
Looking at it from the outside.


Looking at it from the inside


A slightly closer look at the refuge.

Some updates on my LED's

This is me feeding the wires through and my daughter grabbing them and pulling them tight.


All the LED's soldered to the drivers an almost ready to go.


The test of 3 of the LED's.
