So Greg, I read in Coralmaster's thread that you switched to closed loop on your tank? Got pics of that to share with us?

Thanks Kiener but I assure you that I absolutely positively DID NOT switch to a closed loop & for the mention in Coralmasters thread I think Denny deserves a 5 a.m. wake up call on Thursday morning.

Next step is to finish the front of the top cabinets & get these thing figured out for a little something special I have in mind.

Clean electrical install! Looking good. Actuators to lift the top?

Thanks, they will be lifting something but not the top as I have to put a couple shelf's above the tank to keep the wife happy, if that's even a possibility.

Now there's an idea

Need to pick up a 2" stroke actuator & see if i can build a locking system for all the doors as well to keep the grandsons out of the sump area.
