I have one more mp40 controller to get in there and that's it (I hope lol)

Impressive build.

I love the clean organized electrical station. Good job!

whoa! That's some tidy job there! Sometimes it pays to be a little OCD I guess LOL. Seriously, if you're bored can you come tidy my electrical?

Wait, why do you have two controllers??

Well it wasn't really planned to run two controllers, but I bought the second one used for a few parts that were included. It actually became easier to set up two separate p2's (I don't want to shell out for a p3 ) I am running four power bars, a doser (one more coming), the lcd display, ATO and its running my sol. I'm sure I could get everything to run off one but I like the options running 2 gives me.

So after months of using my current at water container, I was having problems with the amount of actual water it held. So after some brainstorming I thought about using acrylic tubes mounted inside my old larger container so I could maximize water capacity but still have my dosing chemicals contained in it..... So after a quick visit to Saco polymers I put these together...

They hold just under 2L each and I decided to not attach them to the tank but to leave them mobile for ease of cleaning and refilling.

Here they are installed....

Not a great pic sorry.

So my water capacity went from about 5gal to about 30g a much needed increase.

such a good idea. my ATO reservoir is only 6 gallons and I have to fill it back up every 24hrs or so. sucks!
