dubsmcfly Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Looks sweet! I really like the rock alot. Can't wait to see em evolve. Link to comment
Justind823 Posted September 5, 2010 Author Share Posted September 5, 2010 Don't worry about your floor. It looks good so far, and I'm sure it's going to be as clean as your planned set up. I like the nice and simple rock work you have. The 5gal mini-display for macros and a mantis is going to be fun to show off. Can't wait to see these plans in action. Thanks! I'm going to start on the stand tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have some progress to post. Looks sweet! I really like the rock alot. Can't wait to see em evolve. Thanks, I do too. I just hope I can fit all my coral in this tank. Link to comment
pmemmer Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Groovy... glad to see this shape becoming more and more popular (started mine in January). And I love the rock ideas... I wanted to do mine as a peninsula, but was overruled by She Who Must Be Obeyed, lol. Link to comment
Zo0k365 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 I like the scape. Maybe add a small ground rock to the left of the main structure for a little balance. Link to comment
Deleted User 6 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Looking good - I like the scape idea. I would either keep it as is or put one structure on the other end of the tank with the open space in the middle. Nice work so far though. Link to comment
Justind823 Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 Yea I go back and forth with the scape I want. I'm sure it will change when it comes time to stock the tank. I'm still waiting on the new tank so I can start drilling it. It should be here tomorrow I think I'm gonna go start working on the stand. Luckily I have plenty of beer left over from the family get together yesterday. Carpentry work always calls for beer. Link to comment
Justind823 Posted September 7, 2010 Author Share Posted September 7, 2010 I got some work done on the stand tonight. I'm very pleased at how it's looking. I still need to figure out what I'm doing for the second level, hopefully I get to keep the original 12 long and use it for the sump. We'll see if UPS comes to pick it up this week, otherwise I'm in the clear. Disregard the room, that too is a work in progress. Link to comment

Thanks! yeah this tank gonna be epic-love the mantis tank too also whered you get the little led light for you mantis tank? The light I made. I bought a simple led par 20 and then soldered 2 rb and a cw cree led in place of the original led's. I also put some 60degree optics in place of the unknown optics that were in it. Link to comment
Justind823 Posted September 8, 2010 Author Share Posted September 8, 2010 I'm thinking about doing something like this for the rkl. Hopefully I can make it work. Link to comment
Deleted User 6 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 you think the RKL is cool enough to display like that? makes it look kinda star treky to me. Link to comment
Justind823 Posted September 8, 2010 Author Share Posted September 8, 2010 Yes, yes I do think its cool enough for people to see it and gasp at its magnificence. I dont know, I want to be able to fiddle with the settings without having to open a door up. I also want it to be angled so I can look without bending down. Its either that or just put it behind the door and call it a day. Link to comment
Deleted User 6 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 gotcha - i guess i would just worry about it distracting from the tank. Link to comment
