PackLeader's 200 gallon Reef

B rated sci-fi was so 3 pages ago John. Geez. ;D We are now on to not being able to do a FTS, and how difficult it is to find black interior paint. You think there would be a steady demand for it with all the goth kids now-a-days. But no. Thankfully, a friend that work's at Lowes was able to get some for me.

 

panoramic mode?

lame :-/

I'm confident (with crossed fingers) a solution will be found.

 

I just want flippin' water in the flippin' tank already. I'm the impatient kid in the back of the car.

Are we there yet????;D

 

Nope. My Nikon is a DSLR. No "modes" like that on it I will see what it is like with a crappy point and shoot. It might work that way. Or I will just have to photoshop a composite image or something.

 

hey pack, whatever happened to the sand?

 

What is an FTS.....Ohhhhh full tank shot. Got it. Duh. Good Lord....my brain is gone.

 

steady demand...HA!!

I'm tellin' you. We need water...

 

Well, as an update, I got the stand pretty much done, and will be moving it into location tonight. The face panel's still need a coat, but I wont need them till after everything is plumbed anyways.

 

Got the stand in place. I thought this system was big before, and that was before it went into an 11' square room. Now it looks MASSIVE!!!!

Anyways, pics:

Here is the closest I can get to a FTS:

The face panel's need an additional coat of black, so that will happen tomorrow. But not too important as they really aren't needed for anything but aesthetics anyways, so no rush with them. I am also hoping to get the DT painted tomorrow, and possibly moved in this weekend.

 

Nice dude. But the window........Direct sunlight through there? Or is it (hopefully) facing North?
