That stand looks awesome !!

I think it could hold up your house. I also see you have a steel I beam in main floor support, my folks have the same setup (super solid), guess they don't use steel much anymore in residential.

Cant wait to see the tank!

And I guess we only have me to blame for that. Sad to see a man that desperate that fast!

Any updates lately? Been a while!

Not really. We're just so busy right now between work, sports, and school. We've been sourcing out products for properly leveling our floor right around the tank.

A few other things are a high priority within the house right now; sealing everything up for winter, and finishing up our kitchen floor. Our house is older, from the 50s, and it requires upgrades that trump TIBET.

Sounds good to me, keep us updated cause this is one of my favorite build threads :)

For leveling my 6 foot 165 we used these industrial sized floor shims that are used to level large shelving units. You've probably already thought of that, but they worked very well. We had an unbelievably unlevel floor (our house is around 30 years old) and it was out about a full inch from one side of the tank to the other on the spot we had to place it.

And you want to cover that with something like WOOD? How's about frosted glass so you see the red bits and then it's frosted enough that you don't really see the guts inside? Maybe a few dim lights inside for effect?
Catherine I think this is a great idea.

this is going to be one sweet tank

We now have all our MH reflectors! Picked up three more Luminarc's from BlkWolfe today. They look amazing. Now all thats left to get now for the lighting is the T5 supplements, and more LED moonlights from Digital Aquatics for the Reef Keeper Elite.

I also ordered the two remaining RKE PC4s (Powerbars) we need for both our current 180g tank, and for Tibet. Hopefully they'll be here sooner rather then later.

How did you make out with the damaged skimmer/Greyhound claim?

michika 12-20-2009 01:28 AM
Greyhound ended up paying out for the damages. A couple of weeks ago Kevin started to assemble his indoor workroom as its been -20 and colder for the last while. He has started to rebuild the damaged parts. So the skimmer will be ready for the big tank when its installed, and I think he plans to test it on our 180g tank soon.
