Twin 55 gal tank build ( NEW PICTURES )

Thanks, that's about the way it is, He sure is going to put trim around the tanks and the door, paint the wall and either paint the trim or replace it.
He is good at making things pretty and putting a finish on things.

 

Very sharp! Keep up the great work!!! What's the poland spring bottle for, waste water??

 

yes to drain water when i do water changes

 

Love the avatar. Reminds me the good old days of 300 baud modems & bulletin board systems, awaiting a good pic to download. Thus, that was the end result of us waiting. LOL!! ;D

 

The trim around the tank are beautiful. Keep up the good work.

 

Day 21,22,23,24,25

Well it has been a few days since i posted new pictures, had to wait a few days to move forward for the budget to catch up to the build . but boy when it did i had a blast shopping for this build :biggrinbo. all the return plumbing for the display tanks is done, today i stained and put the trim up around the front of the tanks :grinthumbs: and stained the door. have about half the drain plumbing done and will finish that tomorrow and will start working on the lighting and install a shelf above the tanks to hang it from. if all gos well in a few days one of the displays will get filled up and come back on line, got all new sand and all my rock work has been nuked and waiting on me to place it back in a tank.;D and look there is water in the sump. ;D;D

That looks great...cant wait to see the end result, what kinda of ETA do you think, that would take me years. Good job. And can someone please tell me how to subscribe to these threads so I can stay in touch?? Thanks 50JC

 

so far there is 25 days in this build one display tank will be starting it's cycling in a few days and hope fill the other in a month you know that darn budget. and at that time i will order some blue backing for the tanks in the mean time i will work on finishing the refugium and get that running . and i don"t know how they subscribe so if some one shows you let me know.


found it subscribe is under the thread tools tab at the top of the page.

 

Cool I figured it out!! Thanks and good luck!! 50JC

 

Have you thought about painting the backs? IMO it looks alot better than a taped on backing.
