The only progress since, is the addition of my dosing pump and dosing containers. I did a DIY on the containers and completely forgot to add to this page.

It has been a while since the last time I updated this thread, so here it goes.

Decided to go a little different with the lights. I'm still working on them and will post some more pictures when completely done.

Just to try them out I used safety wire to get them hung for a day or two

This is the rough draft of the bracket. I still have to clean, sand and buff the edges.

I saw them and thought it was a great idea but wanted the mounts to be nearly invisible. These make the lights look like they are floating :)

JSker that would be awesome and greatly appreciated. I was looking at your 72 gallon build and that is great work you are doing. Definitely having the toys makes things easier.We should definitely get together.

I have finally done it. I have transferred my 75 to my 125. I must say it was a lot longer than what I thought.
Took me about 13 hours to do it all with a few small breaks in between. I'm still in the process on building the outside shell and doors.

Here is an update:
