You are in the right province today, eh?

Shortly after that pic this portion of the cloud started rotating out on it's own. It dissipated before things got too far along though....

Well... I had a smart butt comment about it being quiet in here...then I see you've been yapping it up all afternoon ;Hilarious ...and you still have 2 leaks to fix and an app that you can't use ;Wideyed...maybe you should be working on something rather than talking about clouds ;Hilarious;Hilarious;Hilarious

Well I'm waiting for my buckets to show up which won't be here tomorrow so the leaks need to wait just a bit longer. And the App, well unfortunately that's out of my hands entirely ;Shifty

So for now I'll keep talking about clouds, speaking of which, isn't your tank still cloudy? ;Smuggrin

Alas I can't say otherwise...

This ships tomorrow so next week I can install it and adjust my rock work to where I wanted it in the first place

Replacement intake for my closes loop. Currently I have a 1 1/2" pipe horizontally under the shelf rock and well... it's kindof ugly. Because it's so thick it's difficult to hide and if I did hide it it would take a lot of rock and therefor be rather expensive to fix and take away from the look I'm after. So I had a new 3/4" intake made to reduce suction and make it easier to hide under the shelf. It also has the added bonus of allowing me to lower the shelf a little bit more to where I wanted it in the first place.

I was limited to how low I could go with the pipe because of the size of the elbow. This new intake takes the elbow out of the equation entirely.

Lucky you! Can't wait to see the progression. I absolutely love peninsula tanks.
Would be my dream tank!

You definitely are! Just look at it this way, you're missing all the hail damage that goes along with them lol

I'm trying to be more active in the build threads since they are my favorite part of the community. Taking more time doing the things I enjoy here instead of all the hustle and bustle!

Thanks for noticing though..

It is obvious and much appreciated, peoples' tanks are where it's at!
