LouDog3 Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 Well, I received notice of shipment on my Synergy Sump. I guess I need to get moving on my Room. Still have drywall to hang and start on my equipment panel / wall. The good news, some of the equipment has started to show up, so I can work on the equipment panel this weekend. Next, I dipped all my rock in RODI and now put in a brute to start to cure the Walt Smith Rock. Things are slowly moving along. Link to comment
LouDog3 Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 Still waiting on sump delivery , should be here tomorrow, fingers crossed. In the mean time I have been working on wiring dedicated 20amp service for the tank, and decided to drywall it for a cleaner look. Also, still waiting on some equipment, but figured I would get started on the equipment board while I waited. Going to use a dedicated Tablet , just to make it easier controlling the apex system. Still have a lot of work to do but hope you enjoy some eye candy . Link to comment
Kijho Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Damn, you win the Powerball? Hahaha, this thread is amazing! Following along.. Link to comment
LouDog3 Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 My wallet wishes I won the Powerball. Worked on the Radion's last night. They really are aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Now, I am still trying to figure the best way to anchor the grommets to celling drywall. ( without being nervous of $$$ crashing into the tank) Well, look what finally showed up! This thing is a work of art. Talk about pure sex. Looks like sleep will have to wait this weekend! It's plumbing time! Link to comment

LouDog3 Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Almost finished with the mock up; and I can officially say I hate plumbing. Which probably isn't news to any of you Link to comment
Rduboid1117 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Wow what an awesome build! Good luck with the build the second time around! Link to comment
LouDog3 Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 Thanks, it definitely feels good to finally finish this build. I will say this, I will never be a plumber , man there is purple everywhere. But she is finally wet!! Now on to finishing the Genesis System and Electronic Panel with all the toys Link to comment
LouDog3 Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 Figure I would update. 1. Still working on the Electronic Panel, just a lot of cable management, I know it's not really nesscesary , but I would like it to have the salt room clean and neat. 2. I need to change out my GFCi's for regular outlets, they are triggering when I attached my 3x Radion's. 3. Still awaiting my Vertex 170, should be here soon. 4. Salt in the tank, Rock I just threw in, still need to scape. Only thing that will make this project longer, is two trips planned. I really wanted to start a cycle, but don't want to be gone for 4 weeks , and not know what's going on with the tank. So I will put it off until probably early March. Well, here are some new pics: Link to comment
Elizabeth94 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I see you serious about this tank! All top quality equipment, I like that. You are fully committed now, no turning back! The idea for that paper towel roll right near the sump is so simple, but it will seriously come in handy. Good idea. Link to comment
LouDog3 Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 I'm all in now, as far as the towel rack, stole that idea from Urbanks, probably the nicest build I've seen for simple, and cleanliness. He's been a big inspiration for me on my build. I followed his 110 back in 2012, and now his 250. Simply stunning. Link to comment
