Hello all,

I have just finished the worst move ever....... I can now start building my systems starting back with this one. Updates are on the actual build soon.

My new home has a unfinished basement that we are finishing up the design now. I plan of placing this tank and my new Waterbox system down there with a "fish room" .

So much more on the way!

you should become a distributor, with all the trade issues it might become easier to go thru Canada;)

Curious to see what you are building out of wood....
The whole tank stand is a mix of wood/acrylic/aluminium/steel... I might thrown in some brass aswell LOL..

The sub stand is solid steel so the wood is a cover.

ekoral was nice and send me over there pro controller and was my inspiration for the whole mounting solution.

From a former gaming junkie you killed that wall mount pc. I've always wanted to try one, but could see someone touching a stick of ram and blowing the slot.


But from what I've seen on here i'm off to the YouTube channel to binge watch what you have. Keep up the amazing build and can't wait to see it evolve.

Thank you! The wall mounted PC was abandoned LOL.. I had the same fear as you ..

I have just finished my move to my new home so I am still working on the placement of this tank in the new basement. The build is taking a bit longer then thought as I have scraped most of what was done before and moved to the "wood" look.

I am excited and will share more later this week!
