I really wish that I could afford to fully cover the walls in FRP panelling, but thats just a little too expensive right now.

I know i'm late seeing this thread; but this inspiration tank looks so bad ass!!! I love it. It reminds me of our coral tables we had at Progressive Reef, with live rock and mangroves too. LOve it, can't wait to see what you come up with. Cheers Ronnie

I'll try Home Depot tonight! I'm getting excited. So excited that I wish the frikin closets and racks/shelves would just finish themselves so I can get to plumbing the dang thing.

Quick update.

Got the closets painted with white Kilz Premium. Stuff looks good!

Got the sump shelf levelled and bolted up to the studs in the closet. Took the sump and threw it up there to see how it would look. Still need to paint the plywood and screw it into place.

Started to mock up the mixing station. Plumbing is going to be easier than I thought, and I can use some of the existing plubing which is nice.



Skimmer isn't going in there... just put it in for fun lol
