Lucas's Rimless Shallow Reef - Long overdue update!

Well designed and sleek looking power center! Love the stand, really really nice.

Keep it up, Lucas!! (not the bear, the build )

 

Sick progress, keep the pictures coming.. loving the build.

 

Nice progress! I like the cabinet. Nice choice on stain color for the wood. Can't wait to see it complete.

 

I think you are right about the poly darkening. Might go back and touch a few light spots, but all in all I'm pleased.

You mean beer, right? How about I do both? :

One of these nights I'll actually connect the lights to the controllers/drivers and see how things work. I suppose I should do that soon to discover any flaws...

Thanks Nooze!

Thanks Seano. All our furniture is of the dark variety, so it seemed a logical choice. How's your tank with the power outages and all?:-/

 

Wow! This build is awesome so far! The build quality on that stand is incredible. Keep up the good work! Nice with ale too. Cheers my friend.

 

That will look really nice when you are all done.

The 29g is doing fine. It didn't storm for very long. But my 10g is going through a bacterial bloom after I used lime juice to kill some aiptasia.

 

Well, I meant to get a pic up of all the lights on for you all, but somewhere between testing them before mounting, and plugging them in now, one of the Royal Blue LEDs went south. Sooo, off to order 1 led :

Put another coat of stain on. The boss thought it was a little too light, so better safe than sorry. Poly wont come until Sunday, so I can put 3 layers on in a day. I guess I just sit on my hands for now... :-/

Edit: False alarm. I checked the LED one more time before heading to bed, and to my suprise, blinded me. I ended up resoldering a few connections, and all seems well. Light show tonight!

 

awesome build!

 

Sweet build guy.
