Looking good.
and I won't believe you when you say you don't have any woodworking skills.
I would be very happy to have that stand

lol. Let's see if it holds the weight of the full tank :) Seriously tho, it is a strong stand, and overall a successful project, but a couple of things had to undergo design changes to cover mistakes. I have to fit the doors later this week, and that will decide how much I like the design. I may switch to a different door design.
And, still stuck on mounting the light box. It may sit on 2x2s :)

Pictureless update. I hope to have water and rock in over the weekend, move livestock Tuesday. Scary stuff.

More pics!!!:mrgreen:

Here's a pic of the Zeo and Ca reactor and the skimmer, at various stages of cleaning and assembly.
Snagged on the skimmer, turns out ER plumbing is not standard and the gate valve doesn't want to fit. I need a bigger hammer!

Ran out of paint with just one coat needed for the doors. Arg.

LOL, any project requires at least 3 trips to home depot per day :razz:

What model ER is that?

RS180? CS180? Something 180 :)

that cardboard really sucks up the paint eh. :mrgreen:

When are you coming here? Gonna paint your head, see how much that soaks up!
