No plan for the wiring yet but will be planning it out as I go I guess. Have some energy bar 8's to mount, vdm modules, led drivers, power heads, etc... will be probably using a lot of cable mounts/ties. ![]() |

Funny thing is the fork lift operator asked me how I was going to get it off the truck. Just called 3 friends over to help break the crate apart on the bed so only the display was left, and then we just lifted it off! Salty23 helped. You didn't even lift man! ![]() A lot of people asked via PM's so I'll post this response... I'm in Vancouver so I'm close to the USA border, hence I can easily order from Bulk Reef Supply, ship it to Point Roberts, WA and pick it up from there. I bought 75% of the plumbing parts during black friday when they had 15% off so they were pretty much the cheapest for cepex union ball valves, spears unions, fittings, pipe, etc. They were sold out of some unions so the next cheapest place I found was http://www.completeplumbingsource.com/ The ones from BRS (spears brand) actually have a larger ID though... but still better than sch40. Locally, I got some fittings from Andrew Sheret Ltd. http://www.sheret.com/ Another place is Corix Water Products but they were closed for the holidays so I didn't get anything from them. I did drive by and they have a large location in Richmond! |

![]() Are you going to skin the stand? With a plumbing job that nice I might want to show it off.

Also the reeflo dart pump isn't that quiet... unless I have a dud. So I will skin the stand as well. Planning to use magnets. |

Piece of advice - order replacement seals now. Yours will eventually start to rust and it sucks knowing that the need replacing (evidenced by the rust and salt creep starting to appear outside of the pump - very disconcerting) while you wait for the new ones to show up in the mail. |
