My 180 Custom In Wall

I've had my 55g reef up and running for over a year, and that was my make or break point. If I was able to keep my 55 going for a year, and I still enjoyed the hobby after that, then I'd pursue a larger build. Here it is. And I've got the perfect wall to put it on.




Nope, the Mrs was not happy.....I did this 1/2 hour before she got home.

Hey Matt......Is it too late for a name change???

 

I love it, I can see the conversation:

wife:"hey honey im home. what have you done today?"

you:"not alot just starting a porject."

wife:"thats....... WTH?!?!? theres a hole in the wall!"

you:"I'll fix it the tank in the truck is going there."

wife:"......"

you: arty-smi


;D

 

subscribed this looks like fun ;D

 

This will be interesting to follow. Congrats! As a wife, I think your method was the best -start it and then at that point, what can she do? She's going to want to see the tank there and not the construction

 

better to ask for foregiveness than permission

 

hey man it is dellyjoe here , i can't wait to see your tank, into your wall. gratz mate.
love delly

 

I felt having a verbal conversation would have just delayed the inevitable.....The actual response (Although if you did a wide angle zoom into her eyes, Mcwaters was spot on ;D)
was "OMG!!!!! WTH!!! How long is this project going to take???!!!" Of course I won her over with my charming smile and a crow bar half buried into the wall.....

 

Lol you sir are a brave man ;D

 

Great minds think alike




I made a Mock up with masking tape on the floor......

 

This build looks like fun so far ;D
