So we have consistently been moving from one house to the next, a little every day or so. I haven't had time to work on the façade though... So, Saturday, when I get off work at 6pm, I am going home to build until it is all done! My plan is to work into the weeehours if I have to, but I will finish it, I will prevail! 8 months of time have passed me by now, I will not go one more month! Doors will be ordered Sunday afternoon!

How could I forget the sweeeeetteeesssstt news evers!! This is by far the second best news I have the fortunate chance to share! First obviously was the display tank... Now this!

We are going to have to wear sunglasses to look at our tank! It should be ready next week!

ATI Sunpower - 8x80w T5 High Output!! :cool:

Very nice. I am looking at the ATI 6×24 dimmable.

ATI makes the best stuff! I have an 8x39 going over my frag.

Looking good. The rock work looks amazing. Following with interest (I run a 250dd as well). I absolutely love it makes scraping and coral placement a lot more dynamic

Do it!! That would be awesome!

I agree! I used to have an 6x54 over my 90g and it was amazing! We should start a Club ATI!

Thank you so much for the kind words! I spent countless hours playing with rock and came up with this scrape that I absolutely love! I agree, lots of positive and negative space to play with!

Major Update!!! I stayed up over night working on the facade! Let me know what you think!

Bare Boned Facade!

Fancied up with some moulding!

2 coats of primer before 3 coats of paint!

Dang that's looking sweet man!!!

Nice work. I'm in the process of doing just that. But, I decided to build my entire system (250DD, Sump, Frag and QT) into one gigantic cabinet! Stupid! Yours looks great!

 

[spspirate]

WOW looks really nice!!

Thank you! I put a lot of extra effort into making this one the way I absolutely wanted it!

That's not stooopid! It's a little wild though! Have a build thread? If so I'd like to check it out! My 75g sump is under tank with a 10g ATO reservoir. Plenty of space for other stuff, too! Considering a 20g long Qt with HOB Filtration, it would fit very well under my stand.

Thank you, Andy!

You know we have to keep RVA tanks at that premium level set by our fellow Reefers! [emoji41]

Having everything in one location makes it much easier on me. I ran out of room unfortunately, so I had to incorporate my ATO into my sump.
