There's no going back now.

I remember when I cut holes through our floor. Both my wife and I looked at eachother and said “well, we’re buikding a tank”.

Is it a rental??

 

[dantimdad]

No. I was just jerking his chain.

LOL!

steel is up. The floor is braced. Plumbing through the floor as we speak. So close I can almost smell the salt water.

 

[Johnson]

every thing plumbed in looking good. I gave it a quick turn on test 2 leaks. Hopefully address them this week. There under the stand and it's tight quarters under there. Gonna be a pain.

 

[dantimdad]

Getting close now!

 

[DaneGer21]

That is some serious plumbing!

I am sure you thought of this, but I would label each pipe. Just so you do not have to constantly figure out which is which in case you need to in a hurry. You may know, but could be critical and you give someone else directions. Happened to me.

dang that’s a lot of pipes

 

[jkcoon]

That’s awesome... plus I can use this as pictorial evidence to my wife that I am not as crazy as she says. Thank you, sir!

 

[Johnson]

dang that’s a lot of pipes

Yea 3 per overflow a bit of a pain but made it work.

Holy crap, I made it just in time. I didn't read every word, but got the general idea of what was going on. Going glass, glass companys said no, going acrylic got messed around with that, couple of issues building but not a big deal, holes not lining up but here we are. did I miss anything? Can't wait to see this bad boy up and running, I'm sure the fish are tired of their temporary home too.
