Got some of my plumbing finally in...funny how difficult it was to get some of this stuff in Canada.

Here's a TrueWye, 2" with graduated reduction to dual 1" pipes for less head pressure.

And here are the expanders that I will use to bridge between some fixed slip pipes already in place. They extend up to 3" and were cheaper than unions.

Kool parts
Hurry up and get it wet already :razz:

OK, I gather it'll still be awhile ... but we're gettin' antsy

What's your move-in date, and any anticipated water-testing soon ?

C'mon c'mon c'mon, stop teasing us :wink:

Jeez, if I lived up there I'd be volunteering to plumb it :mrgreen:

haha...I wish there were more of you around! Gonna try moving in on the 19th if Murphy doesn't have anything to say about it. I will continue to plumb things when I get back on Friday. The fish room is dependent on my contractor...I need the floors finished and he's also putting laminate on the bench holding my sump. We were waiting on the HRV to get fixed (circuit board was DOA) so that we could suck out the ugly fumes from the floor epoxy.

Well the big move to the house is tomorrow...at least for most of my furniture. My 70G tank is staying at the old house while I try to get this one going. Got lots of plumbing still to do and my sump isn't moved or plumbed yet either.

Thought I would fire off a pic of the boards in place that will run my LED. I have to "reconnect" all the wires now that it's up. Hidden nicely if I do say so. :) They roll out for working on them on drawer slides.

that tank has such a presence with the massive cabinetry all around it.

I was thinking the same thing! Such a focal point. It has, "I'm the BOSS" all over it.

Well put noob =)

The politically correct terminology is "Junior Member".

Haha...so what happened to your post count? Did I miss something?

Thanks for the compliments on the tank by the way. You wouldn't believe how true what you say is. So much so that my builder felt he needed to beef up my fireplace and my entire kitchen in order for the tank to not completely overshadow them from a feature perspective. Cost me lots of extra dough and time in the end because of that.

Hi my name is Mark and my brand new house with a bangin' view had to be upgraded because it didn't look as bangin' as my new monster tank install. Pity me! #FirstWorldProblems
