It always blows my mind when talking to Dave the lengths he will go to for his customers on the tank builds. He's never hesitated to completely redo a tank if the customer is not happy. No better place to have a tank built.

Tank looks awesome now GET TO IT (and tighten gently).

Agreed. He has a customer in me for life! I'm working on it. Hoping to have FW in it tonight for a leak test

Dude that looks sweet. Why is that Christmas tree so bare? Apparently all the funds went into the tank build. Hope the kids aren't dissappointed.

LOL, I was going to say something about that Charlie Brown Christmas tree over there but I didn't want to be insensitive. It's like he was right in the middle of decorating but then he got the tank call and DROPPED EVERYTHING. I would have too. Tank looks sweet.

LOL no kids! This is my first christmas tree on my own!
I like the look so far, gonna pick up some bulbs to try and make it not so blue and see how I like that. Time will tell.

Hey now! It has character! From what I've heard, Ol' Xmas tree hunting out in Lodgepole, AB isnt what it used to be!

Plumbing: Done.
Freshwater Leak Test: Successful. (& no overtightened bulkheads this time...)

As you can see, I didn't plumb a manifold off of my return piping as I am going to have a dedicated Maxijet to run them.

Again, sorry about the iPhone pics. Roomate has the camera with him.

Will start filling with RO when I am home from work tomorrow hopefully. Until then, cheers.
