Twin 55 gal tank build ( NEW PICTURES )

SWEET! Can't wait to see the end product

 

Nice job man! Subscribed!

 

Looking good!

 

Alot of people give U tubes some bad reputations. A friend of mine (who helped us get into SW in the first place) has had his U tube up and running for 3 years straight with no problem. As long as you have a high quality tube, everything's fine. The flow going through mine is so strong, any airbubbles that build up at the top when I restart the siphon after cleaning it get shot into the overflow box.

Lookin good. We want water.

 

Day 14 & 15

Well there is not to much to see got the shelving done and set up the computer for my tank live web cam, program and all, got most of the return plumbing done. tomorrow i am going to do a leak test on the tanks i resealed hope all stays dry. then on to plumbing my plastic tub for my refugium. soon have to wait on the budget to catch up to the build.







here is the link to my new live video shot it will be on and off wile i finish this built to make shore it working right for when i start filling the tanks with water.

Looking good! Glad everything is coming together. However, it is kind of creepy having a live video feed of the build...we can all stalk you Did you just tape a piece of paper in front of the camera? Because that's what it looks like.

 

just a temporary note taped on the tank i am shore i will have to try the web cam in different locations to see what views come out looking best. so you might want to keep checking it no telling what you might see wile i finish the build. ;D

 

Like I said, the webcam is potentially creepy But very very cool. I like it.

 

LOL I love it!!

 

Day 16 & 17 & 18

Well the tear down of the last 55 gal tank to move has begun, i am trying to save as much of the old water to move over as i can, i just knew that olive barrel would come in handy. i set up a small holding tank for a few thing's, and the rest is going go into the frag tank in the other room for awhile till i get the tank moved and set up in its new home. the leak test on the resealed sump so far is a success not a drop of water ;D , in the morning i start filling the 55 tank that i resealed to leak test that, then the build will really get interesting and fun new sand and some new water and then i get to play with some rocks. i just love the sound of running water. ;D;D

this is a nice water storage barrel.


i have the live video cam on this for the moment.
