Next we worked on the room some more, and then drywalled around the tank.

Your build is coming along nicely! Can't wait to see it all set up! The suspense is killing me!!

Lol you are one hilarious fellow. How's that popcorn?

Running low, need more kernels. I actually really like how you finished the stand right up to the wall. Gives it that nice finished look instead of my ghetto approach :lol: Sometimes I wish I had done that.

I was originally going to build it right into the wall, but I didn't want to move the steel house support in the wall, so I decided I'd build the wall out to the tank :biggrin: I actually haven't finished that part of the build yet. I'm going to finish the wall up to the bottom of the overflow, but going to cut it in half, so I can remove that piece of 'wall' if I need to get to the overflow lines. I'll make sure to get pictures of this as I build this part.

Well I'm sorry all, I haven't been around or had enough time to keep up on this build, so I'll change it to an update on how things are going with my tank. It's been running for a year or longer now and things have been up and down, but really great lately, I think I'm finally through all the tough work of getting a tank up and running and having it stable and controllable. I may even be at the point of having to trim up some corals and putting them up for sale or trade. I've attached some photos below, I hope you enjoy them. And yes I know I need a fancy camera, but that will come in the future.

Looks great Colin, wow! Are those AI SOLs over your tank?

Phenomenal! Your tank looks fantastic.


More photos?

Hey Kien, thanks, I'm starting to be super pleased! Yes those are AI SOL's over my tank. Seem to be growing my SPS nicely too. These pictures area little bit older, the corals are quite a bit larger now.

Thank you I appreciate that. I'll try to get some more photos this weekend, I actually think I have a free weekend to do things like that lol Stay tuned.
