Just an excuse to make another one :p If I'm being honest, as much as I love plumbing, I'm not looking forward to my build, doing a lot of stuff I've never done before so it's a little daunting. But I'm sure most of it will turn out okay lol if you want feel free to fly up here and give me a hand!

Lol. I would like to. Have a Molsen, build a reef, watch some Letterkenny. Unfortunately I used up all my paid time off with the little one.

Well I can't say theres a better reason to use your time off than a new little reefer so I'll forgive you....

..... this time! :p

 

[Why-Me]

I was apprehensive at first, it's my first time plumbing a tank.
After an hour or two of measuring, cutting, fitting; things started to click and became easier as I could picture what I needed to do.
At one point today when my dad was picking up my daughter I explained the whole setup to him and how each piece works and its function, because he was stumped as to what everything did.
Right then I realized I have the hang of this and when he's here to "help" me Sunday, I'll be the one teaching him and helping him help me lol .
Funny how things come full circle as he's taught me almost everything I've done.
This is the final plumbing setup!!

Tomorrow I'm moving the apex and messing with a rats nest of wiring.

 

[NY_Caveman]

Love it. It made me think if I ever plumb a tank I could color code function.

 

[Why-Me]

That's what I wanted to do but my daughter wanted dr seuss striped craziness. so she got it!
I wanted to do purple returns and yellow drains.

 

[NY_Caveman]

Well, I will use my imagination then. Great job, indeed.

 

[PanchoG]

Good job !

 

[Katrina71]

By the time we would get there, I will be wanting something stronger than coffee. :)

I can hook ya up!

 

[Katrina71]

@Why-Me can your lfs order her a pederson? I'd like to get it for her. Please. It matches her tank too!

 

[Katrina71]

Good morning. Better day. I'm working today. My feet hate me, but...

I'm terrified. Not gonna lie.
