Default New top off Tank

Thanks Dave, fits perfectly.
I bought a pull shelve, it allows me to pull the top up tank 6" out for easy filling.

Default LED lighting

I pulled the trigger and bought the F series from Sunbrite. They're all hooked up through my iPhone and seem to be working just fine. I have them at about 25% in the pictures, at 100%, it far too bright in the tank.
I have to thank Ray for getting them here, and for answering my thousand questions.

Default Eco blue pumps

Now word is my pumps will be ready next week, so they'll be the next thing to go in before I start the finishing around the tank. Ill update when they arrive.
I haven't been around too much as work has me all over the place. Thanks for looking,
Bob

Thanks Mike, its been a slow go lately. Finally made some headway. Those pumps are due to be shipped next week, so when you have a sec, we'll have to get together and do a bit of 220 v wiring.

Lee Valley.
Item # 12K26.01
Cost $59.99
works well, has a 210 lb capacity, just have to make sure its level so it doesnt slide out on you. That could get messy.
