Shaggy’s project 58

[Shaggymc]

Ok y’all…. I played with my BioCube to ease myself back into Reef keeping…. But now it’s time to start a real project.

I am in the 3d printing industry and have a full manufacturing shop I use for my Battlebots projects (including laser cutters for acrylic) so we might get a bit creative on this build

The Tank. 58g Oceanic Cichlid tank (drilled but plugged)

This is our humble beginning

Well, a bit humbler maybe… but the kids made sure it got fish

It will be sitting in the same spot the BioCube was…. Ever try and move a full 32g tank? That’s as far as it’s going with water still in it.

The crew will get a front row seat to watch their new home get built.

Love the paper fish. 32 gallons of water is pretty heavy

Started cleaning her up

The bulkheads were plugged and siliconed.
Why use a reasonable amount of silicon when you can use the entire tube?

Time to start building rocks :-)

Oh man! They are here!
