tpallas Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 Very nice looking build. This gets me thinking of setting up my drop-off pico again. That was a very cool pico! To be honest I have first conceptualized this as being a 6-8 gallon desktop dropoff. Then things went from there....we all know hot that goes! Yes!!! Can't wait to see more. I'm in the midst of planning a drop-off as well. Good luck! Awesome!! Have you started a thread yet? Would love to know what you're planning! Link to comment
Mr. Microscope Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 That was a very cool pico! To be honest I have first conceptualized this as being a 6-8 gallon desktop dropoff. Then things went from there....we all know hot that goes! Awesome!! Have you started a thread yet? Would love to know what you're planning! Not yet. I'm still working on some sketchup plans, but I was thinking about starting a thread for it (though it's still years off). Another major aspect I'm planning of the build is a huge refugium behind the tank that overflows into the DT rather than being pumped in from below. I'm taking big inspiration from kgoldy's DIY fuge. A big reason for this is to allow pods to fall directly into the DT rather than going through a return pump. I want a mandarin or two! Link to comment

Arkayology Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Is that black foam lining for the tank? Stand looks good. How much longer for until the tank is done? Link to comment
tpallas Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 Is that black foam lining for the tank? Stand looks good. How much longer for until the tank is done? Its actually a black rubber waterproof paint.....I'm thinking it should be ready in a week or so. Cheers Link to comment
