I needed to build a tank to consolidate a few smaller tanks I was using. I ran out of space and things needed a change. I got the plastic on the 21st and had a limited amount of time but I think it came out OK.

Here's a few pics":

Starting to move a few items over. I still have some stuff at a friends but I am thinking of just letting this grow in a bit. I used blue metal flake paint on the back of the tyank, I am liking the way it looks. I wasn't sure about it at first.

Very nice!
 
Put the doors on today. I am thinking I should have come up with a more elegant solution to the glass. Eventually, I am going to start adding stained glass paneles. I should have tidied the sump before the pics but I was just happy to get this done. Door hardware tomorrow.
