Wow can't believe I've missed this build up until now. Words like amazing, wonderful, exquisite simply won't do in describing just how amazing your attention to detail and the top notch equipment you e chosen. I too will be using the Supra sump in a future wife approved build. Thank you for allow us to experience vicariously through you such amazeballness!

What do you think so far?
I think you have way too much time and talent on your hands for this. Have you thought about taking up cross stitching? ;Happy

I might pick that up one day :).

I think this tank will be featured in a magazine when it's finished.

:p we will have to see how it all goes..

Well I started one of the sides of my tank! I am happy how it turned out so far.

As you can see I am going for a Vertex inspired tank :p

I picked up a monitor that has a large black glass protected screen :). This will help if I drop water on it also it had a tiny bezel. It is also quite thin as the power supply is remote :).

Building my control center :) This tank will have quite a bit of electronics on it...

I still have a long.... very long list of stuff to do... I also need to add quite a bit more led's.

This stand will hold the "NEW" Cerebra 2.0 also 90% of the electronics ballast and drivers for this system.. It will also hold 2 Eco Tech battery's for when the power goes out. Not to mention countless other wires and stuff.

The left hand space next to the monitor is where the new power bar for the Cerebra goes. On the left hand side of the unit the 2 mp-40 controllers and Cerebra display goes. As for the other side there is a access panel to reach whatever is needed.

I will be sleeving all the electrical cables to make it look "Clean" I will also be adding a stereo system so I can rock out with my fish....








<--- The stereo system was a joke......... or is it.......

Is there anything you can't do? Sure alot of tools to use, but without those skills they would not be much of a help. Insane imagination!

I remember seeing your old tank on youtube like a year ago but had no idea you built that monster your self.. But after seeing all this i'm not supriced in any way!
