![]() Also, getting the tank built in Calgary by Concepts and shipped to Vancouver was literally half the price that I was being quoted in Vancouver.

![]() Arrived yesterday!
The next step is to skin the stand. I think it will be done in a dark walnut. I spoke with a guy today, hopefully I can get this done quickly as I'm itching to get started! Also, after a bunch of problems with my AI nano I got a replacement from AI. Unfortunately they didn't have a Nano in stock, so I paid a bit extra and they sent me a Sol blue. That will light the refugium/frag tank. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() Very slow progress!
![]() ![]() Came down to Mitras vs. Kessil. Went with the Kessil because of its small size, price, and I like the mounting arm. Knowing me I'll regret my decision in two weeks, but so far I like my choice. ![]() The overflow. I used stockman-like standpipes due to a lack of space. If it doesn't work out I'll try another design. ![]() Cut out a few teeth and fed the loc-line under the eurobrace. ![]() Not quite finished the plumbing. Still need to build something to support it, and I need to finish the return plumbing. The DC5000 has a weird sized outlet, 1.25" and I couldn't find a PVC 1.25"-1" threaded bushing in Vancouver. I have accepted I'll have to use the 1.25"/1" barbed adapter that came with the pump, which I'll attach to hard plumbing with a 1" barb/male threaded adapter. ![]() Still lots to do. |
