    I do have to say, man, this light is freaking heavy! Gonna be a pain to hang from the ceiling. Going to have to get into the attic and reinforce some things :p

    Pack isnt making a tank anymore. It's some sort of death trap. You lean over the edge of the tank and wham light fixture pins you underwater, crushing and burning you to death while you drown and are eaten alive by the clownfish.

    Really? Seeing above posts and what is on my living room floor is proof enough there is no way I would be able to pay for your flight ;)

    And, it wasn't to kill you. It was that pic in your tank thread. Alluring I feel is the best word of describing it.

    Honestly, I have no idea. I stopped keeping track of the total. It was the only way of being able to continue with the build, lol. I just concentrate on what it will be like when I am done ;D

    Hopefully! ;D It's come down to one of the last things I need to do. I have my pumps that are on the way, and that will be the last of the "essential" equipment. It's really hard to get motivated to work with your hands in a garage, when that's what you do all week ;)
    Other than that stuff, all I will need to do is paint, then I will be ready.
