Planning a new system- sneak peak

[The reefer]

I glued small clear acrylic piece to the frame, it holds it from falling in. Here is a close up:

Thanks for the tip. I've been holding my screen up with my magfloat

I used Gorilla glue, it is great, bonds all kind of surfaces together.

Thanks, man you're so close to me in Elmwood Park, if you ever want to stop by and check out my tank just let me know, I am by Brickyard.

Cool thanks Mark, I just may take you up on that!

That is much more then a reef tank, it is truly a piece of art. Can't wait to see more.

Thanks Marilyn, but right now it is not even a reef, just a glass box starting to look good , I hope with time it will become a beautiful reef just like I had envisioned in my head.

It seems like this build takes forever. I thought I will be able to get water this weekend, but with work so busy I only worked on organized my cabinet and sump. I want this to be done before I put water in. Still waiting on my custom build ATO container that should arrive this week. I finally got a good hang of the ATI lamp and its software and working on my lighting cycle.

sump

control panel

routed couple of notches in frame for powerheads cables, so screen still sits nice and flat.

Lookin good Mark. How did u shave off that semicircle on your screen frame for the wire?

 

[MMreef]

I used Dremmel tool. Works very well.
