hey how did you get that deal at Lowes? Can you just call them up and ask if they have any damaged cabinets?
That is a great idea to get some doors for cheap.
The stand is complete, I need to touch up a few areas and it's not perfect but close enough. I have to say, for the money and time invested in this I won't ever build another stand again. I'll just buy next time.
Next up, drilling for the overflow and plumbing. Hopefully I'll have time to do it today.
Small update, sorry no pics I'm tired and going to bed. The tank is full, everything is hooked up except the lights and the ATK which I am returning for a V2 next week. My salinity is a little low right now but I'll work it out tomorrow and then start cycling.
I really like how you are approaching your first reef tank. Most people start with a nice 10/20 gallon. Then say eh, I need some LEDs. Then go hmmm ATO is a must. Later they are like wow, a controller, I need one. Finally they say, yea I need a bigger tank.
You just said ehhh screw it. First tank:
180 gallons
Custom stand
Sump
Custom plumbing and overflow
Drilled it
Controller
ATO
Alright, now I’ll get it wet.
Cracks me up, but I like it. Nice work.
I see my girlfriends tank every day and it just looks so small. I wanted to go big so I just went crazy. Just wish I could have had it together sooner so I could have gotten those fish from you. I'll find another nice pair though. After tomorrow I have 9 days off work do I should have the canopy up soon.
Fish are actually still for sale so get the tank ready and we can make it happen.
I wish I could get 9 straight days off.
