140g peninsula build...TANK IS GONE!!!

[Kyl]

Is the tank confined to a specific room in the house? If so, a portable AC unit for the room might make more sense since the chiller will just be expelling that heat into the room, to be re-absorbed by the water, rinse repeat.

We both have mixing stations in the garage in Texas. That’s why we need the chillers. I use the house A/C to keep the tanks cool!

Winter picture of the station...

Summer picture lol...

Notice the change lol...

Well I should have clued in on the temp, but re-reading the precursors to my post and.. ;Facepalm

That's one quality mixing station though, love those sideways stacking vessels.

Been planning my wiring. I have 21 things to plug in. (Really hope I’m not missing anything!) I have 2 EB832 for a total of 16 plugs.

Think I’m going to use splitters on the following items:

2 Kessil 360s to one plug
2 MP40s to one plug
2 MP10s to one plug
2 stand leds to one plug
And plug my router into the wall.
That will give me 16 sockets needed!

I’ve been running two MP10s off one plug for quite a while. No issues doing that with the MP40s?

Other plugs needed:

AP700
Retro T5 set
Korallin Reactor
2 Vectra M1s
Nyos Skimmer
Aquamaxx Reactor
2 heaters
Fuge light
2 battery backups

Should work out...

Coming along great and I'm really loving your attention to detail.

 

[RichtheReefer21]

wow this is going to be epic.

No detail was spared in this build.

Awesome sir! Keep it going!

Presley sanded everything and he started painting today. The paint sprayer is awesome. Two coats of paint in 10-12 min.

I’m in San Antonio. I was using rodi ice cubes but was hard to match the temp of the tank. Tracked down a used chiller and that has worked great so far.

Nice, I'm in san Antonio as well. Gotta see this thing in person when it's done

Not a problem, but, there will be a small admission fee.

Well...she’s back home for a few days, then getting shipped off to have something else done....

That looks fantastic.

That looks fantastic.

Thank you sir! Now the fun begins!

 

[Atti2de]

Can’t just sit here and stare at it. I need to play with it. I added what I as able to add until the tank swap happens. Then it will get filled up!

 

[Atti2de]

Couldn’t help setting the sump in there also. It’s the first time the two have been together. Awe...so cute together. Wife hates me now but she helped me carry the sump outside. What else can I add....besides the tank, she will not help me with that!

 

[justingraham]

Looks amazing

 

[ranchhand02]

Nice set up

 

[Trueblue17]

Your building my dream too , that's wicked man awesome job

 

[Picesduh]

Really going well. Can’t wait to see this come together.

Q: why is your sump tray sticking out ?

Couple of reasons: I have a place for my Reactor and something else to add back there. Also the ghost overflow and plumbing will be over the tray in case there is a leak there it will hit my sensor. And I wanted a tad bit water holding volume if there is a leak! Lol

At least that’s the plan...we all know how that goes!
