Getting the paint done before we place the tank in its spot.

Im having some concerns about the stand that came with the tank it wobbles to much for my liking so i might get it reinforced or I might just get a new one built.

Stand ready to go to the welding shop to get re enforced, sand blasted and powder coated.

I'm hoping to get the stand next week and start the tank. I'm also still thinking about getting the Vectra but something tells me to stick with my MSX 1350 askol motor block. [emoji51][emoji51][emoji51]

He makes them in gray PVC also. But if you like it in white get it. I personally like the white sumps better.

While the stand gets welded and powder coated why not post a pic of the Reef Crest

 

[iiluisii]

Stand is complete with re enforcement and shortened now to get the powder coating done. The guy also welded tabs to screw the wood panels so I don't have to drill holes through the square tubbing.

Stand is back from the shop. Should be moving along faster since this was holding me back
