Finding Sauce (a lot of tanks in a little time) RSR 250 Nem tank

[Lost in the Sauce]

This happened.

I'm honestly not sure if I think the tank now looks huge, or tiny.. My brain's in a conundrum.

It's still got another three or so inches to scoot back. Gave myself a little more room for working for now.

I think you went to small. I still see like 2 feet of horizontal space on that wall you need to fill...

Agreed.

There's always next time.

Oozing with jealousy. Can't wait to see what you do with it.

Thank you. Next logical step is cutting holes in the wall that adjoin the two rooms and running plumbing.

Hold my Beer, What can go wrong?

Think about it this way, if you hit a water line now you just have an even larger tank. Just seal the windows and embrace it.

I'll be over to "help" later today... bahahaha.

I can do this with you safe in the knowledge that it is being well looked after.

I like where your head is!

Haha. Every time I crack a new beer, it takes me a minute to realize that the can came half empty. Naturally I don't accept this so i finish that one and open a new one just to find it again after a moment.

In times like this, it takes a village!

After a false start round one, I got a new set of tees and a valve bodies. Spent a good few hours today assembling the manifold.

I had planned for the best hydrodynamics I could think of but when you put it into reality, I didn't have the space. The plan changed twice when the real sump measurements are there.

Also abandoned the dual returns on favor of a flow bar for the frag tank. Going to see if the FX pump will hook up to it. If so, I'll get it installed and start tuning it while the frag tank is being used as a temporary quarantine setup.

I am now fully committed to the Tinja Nurtles theme.

I am confused by your spray bar design. Is one ninety the inlet and the other the outlet? If so why not just cap the outlet for more flow? Love the design and totally cool with the TMNT color scheme! Wish I had a TMNT emoji right now……

You're not confused. I dropped my PVC shears on the concrete and bent the blade. I needed to cut a small piece to glue the cap on. It now looks like this.

Very excited to see it all come together. Thanks for watching my build and engaging.

@Lost in the Sauce, did you get Earl from the guy on Craigslist and then it just grew out? Or did you get it as a single shroom and it’s just grown a ton?

Just wondering how long it actually takes to get a giant shroom rock like that.
