Just link to page 1. That's what I do when things like this occur.

sure, why not.

I thought about it, but then said nah. I did update page one after this with links to reef-relevant data. I'm pondering an updated stock and equipment list as well.

That's what I do occasionally. I just went to Panda's thread and threw out my current numbers of coral in my tank and where they're from.

I mean, have you seen what happened to my build thread? It has devolved into utter madness. lol. I don't believe I'll be winning any giveaways any time soon either, if it is of any consolation.

That being said, more reef related content is inbound here soon. Stay tuned.

Okay, "Team Styx"! As Promised, some more reef related content:

I should finally begin working on the new custom controller cabinet tomorrow, so I wanted to share the run-down with you guys and solicit some feedback. I invite and welcome any and all questions, comments, or critique(s). Be gentle @crusso1993 ! LOL

Here are the crude "schematics" that I worked up using Powerpoint. A few points of clarification: All hardware will be satin nickel, LED lighting will be added to the interior in the space between the door and inset panel, a magnetic closure will be added, the door will be tied into the intrusion detection system and will trigger both an audible alarm and email / text alerts if opened while enabled, and the door will be shaker-style with a 1/4" thick clear inset polycarbonate panel to serve as a window. All screw holes will be filled and sanded before paint, and the color scheme will mimic the old cabinet with blue exterior and white interior.

Please note that, while the measurements are included, these renderings are clearly not to scale. There is also a typo that shows a rear panel as being 18" in length, when it is actually 28". Do your worst:

We made you look ridiculous? We? It’s my humble opinion that you accomplish that all in your own.

Plans look good. I’d just add three dowels along the back edge of the side pieces. I realize it’s 3/4 maple but, at 48” long, better safe than sorry.

Why polycarbonate instead of glass? It scratches a lot easier.

I weighed the risk or scratch vs. the risk of shatter. Shatter won that race, given how unbelievably clumsy I am.

Aren't aquarium schematics supposed to be sharpee on napkins?!

the door will be tied into the intrusion detection system

I have a very precocious niece that visits often, and despite the fact that she is 10 now, she can't get it into her head that Uncle Matty's aquarium is off limits. So, I'm adding intrusion detection to the stand and controller cabinet, via wiring to an Apex breakout box.
