Yes... call if you need directions but I'm on Pleasant View Loop in Clinton. I think everyone's been out here before so you should recognize the house. Thanks again for offering to help.

Update, water! Vinegar water, that is. The cleaning begins. 200 gallons of ecstasy to come. Joy Division Ceremony (probably one of my top 10 songs ever), a bit of wine, and all is well at the Anderson household.

Very excited to see more of your build Dave!

Are you going to use the same skimmer from your 60 gallon?

Si, senior! It should certainly handle the bio-load. Pandora is bringing back memories tonight. "Making love to his ego" still cracks me up 42 years later!

Bummer, wine's almost gone. Gotta crack the Santa Teresa Rum for the Olympics opening ceremony (although a nice vodka would be apropos).

Nada yet but it will house 2X OR Arctic S0256 plus 2X Chinese fixtures modified to my specifications (LOL, I dont' remember the details but they will be transitioned from the current 60 setup to this tank).

Working on mounting lights and plumbing. Should be ready for water this weekend. Got some kind of chemical in the little tank from the tank construction and everything looks pretty bad so I've been distracted trying to bring that under control. Not much is colorful anymore...

Now if only I could shake the recurring nightmare of a seam split and 200 gallons of water on my hardwood floors LOL.

I really like that canopy. I need to try building something like that. Do you have it hanging from the ceiling?

Yes, from 2 steel cables. I really like the clean look it presents. Eventually I'll have 4 120W LED fixtures in there.

Get one of those water-on-the-floor alarms...so if it springs a leak hopefully you can catch it before it completely busts.

Love the signature line; fits me to a "tee"!

If it bursts game's over, hardwood floors get a reset!
