Thanks. The red pipe was ordered from Bulk Reef Supply. The cord management stuff was all bought at B&E Electronics here in Calgary.

Time for an update! I have completed the equipment side of my reef . I ordered dosing pumps from BRS and programmed them with my Cerebra. Its been nice to be done with daily manual dosing! I completed my "electrical cabinet" on the upper side of the right cabinet with the addition of a Vortech Battery Backup.





I created a cover utilizing a left over shelf from the cabinet and white trim. I mounted a small brushed nickel knob on the left for easy removal. The cover clicks easily into place using cabinet magnets which I mounted in the corners. It makes it look pretty clean.





I also added a second power bar for my Cerebra. 6 outlets was not enough with the first one. I did not have a lot of options for mounting the power bar due to size constraints. I removed the liquor from the middle of the stand along with the middle shelf. I used the same method for mounting the first power bar as you can see below. I then notched a section out of the shelf before putting it back in place. It looks great and actually did not take up a lot of room in the back. It is totally invisible once the bottles are back in place!





As for dosing containers, I went with Vertex Libra Vessels. They look good and are easy to work with. On the right, I installed a trigger systems crystal 5 gallon ATO reservoir. Check it out!

Awesome looking build! You really accomplished a lot with such a small space to work with. I've always been impressed by Concept's builds and yours turned out great.

Where did you find the Kessel H-150?

Thanks. I picked up the Kessel on Amazon actually. I can't remember the price but it wasn't that bad.
