Omg, you're so demanding.
I still haven't gotten around to cutting the rock that setosa is on, but it's growing nicely and it's a bright pink now, with many more polyps. i'll get another shot of it when I can.

Hmmm, sounds interesting, can't wait to see what you've done with the tank.


Get a move on it!!

Thread fail. No pictures.

All right lass, it's a race!

Heading to get the last bit of oak I need for the stand right now. I'll post progress pics this evening.

OOOh he threw down the gauntlet

:popcorn:

Have you seen the CurrentUSA subcurrent filters. I just picked one up from premiumaquatics yesterday for my 40breeder and it does a pretty good job of surface skimming.

Get some pics of the stand up ASAP!

WTH, why am I the last one to find out about this tank?

I want one!!!

There were three pictures, I'll have you know.


A race it is.


I got this, don't worry!


Yeah, I saw the subcurrent filters, but, imo, it would clutter up the display even more than the hob w/surface skimmer.


DO EET

M'kay

dang that was fast. did you build that from scratch? nice job.

are you going to be able to get in there to access the equipment? wait...were you having a sump?

Yeah, it's from scratch, 2x4 skeleton and MDF shell. (before anyone says it, yes, I know mdf will swell if it gets wet) I had a lot of free help from my mom and dad, lol.

There won't be any sump, so I just left the back bottom open enough to keep the electrical parts hidden.

All that's left is to putty the holes, sand, prime, and paint.

wut?

Oh.... no sump, sry.

Lub you too, wolfie.

lol... i think u might live with no sump

I use one for my 34 gallon cube. It requires more maintenance than the aquaclear surface skimmer because the subcurrent does not adjust for water height.

Holes have been puttied... tomorrow I'll pick up some sandpaper, primer, and paint and might have that done before mid-week.

Stand looks good Lani. Looks like we are neck and neck! Something tells me you are going to finish first though.

Give that MDF several good coats of enamel paint and it will hold up fine/

Thats what I am talking about girl! you go!!

For Christel and Brian.... my lil SPS:

tease!

any more pics?

Of what? The stand or dry tank?

They look the same.

FTS 20H :] gogogo!

Of what??? I posted pics just this afternoon!!


Looks the same as the last FTS posted in that thread.

Go to bed!

I know... I need to.. soon.

Me too. Stupid time change

Yup, I'm a little 'off' right now, lol.
Nite, Cliffy.

Nite

wow, I just found this thread and I was like, gah! I've missed so much! But then I realized that the thread was only two days old.



I'm predicting it reaches page 10 before water goes in the tank.


And why are you setting up another tropical tank when you could be setting up a coldwater tank? Because... there are some strawberries here waiting for you when you do.

I promise the next tank I do will be coldwater.

I think you should put in a knife rack on the side of that stand, a built in articulating arm camera mount on the other side, and get that chair from the mental hospital pics to put in front of it for viewing. Don't forget to mount a LCD monitor to the front and a wireless keyboard and mouse and you'll never have to walk away from it.

Steve

Hmmmm..

I f*cking told you that was a setosa! What a great hitch hicker!

Oh and Lani, I has no sump neither.

It's not like I could be logged onto NR any more than I already am.


Yay, I'm going to have to go back to that LFS and check frags for hitchers.
Sumpless FTW!

No sump? I can't blame you. Experts dont need the extra water volume to make l337

MORE PICTURES !!!!!

Damn straight.
I've never used a sump, and likely won't for quite some time.


When it gets closer to being finished, geez.

HMMM sounds like we need a sumpless 40B club.

Lani my tank brokeeeeeeeee the guy broke it

Whaaaat?


Btw, stand is primed, ready for paint tomorrow.



No, I didn't take pics.

wut? update with improvements to tank's readiness and no pics?!

What,,,still no pics !!!!!

So demanding...
