hey all so not much over the past week just playing the waiting game, i did get my apex the other day so im still setting it up apparently its harder to set this up then it is to do any sort of brain surgery lol seriously though its alot of f'ing around(pardon my french) so far it makes a great thermometer lol well im almost got it figured out tonight im mounting it in its place with velcro and setting up the controller so its nice and clean.

i also finished up the stand a bit more while the misses was gone on hollidays so i had to make sure it was looking good when she got home to justify spending so much this month on it lol

im also gonna set up my refuge and frag tank tonight i have all the plumbing done its just a matter of filling it up and hooking up the return pump for now untill i get my led's ordered ill just use a small t5 or similar i have kincking around


heres some pics as it sits today i still am looking for more rock and some tonga branchcheers all






















and my job for tonight and proably till the day i die lol:

thanks mike, funny thing is it cost me $00.00 lol minus some small hardware.... i do renovations for a living and after putting a pile of money into my last stand with all kinds of fancy hardwoods as soon as it was finished it was sold , so this time no way lol i kept it simple to finish it fast and instead of going with the average wood grain stands i went with a very cool color green and trimmed it plain jain.i find it looks sweet when theres little to it and leaves more to viewing the tank plus i gotta say the misses loves it, all the materials i had in the garage plus paint trim etc...... right over the window is where my apex display will be mounted with velcro and after tonight you wont be able to see any more wires as they are getting "fished lol" through the framing or pvc fastened to the stands ceiling
