Chris! Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 It's actually all thanks to Lawn that I have standard fittings. Glad to hear something good came of that, did you request them or did they learn their mistake? lol Incase you missed it since I've clearly missed it..... which BM skimmer is that? Tank looks great, but those doors are irritating me, remind me to much of my own that need to be aligned lol Quote Link to comment

Tank looks great, but those doors are irritating me, remind me to much of my own that need to be aligned lol Skimmer is BM-180A The door hinges might need adjusting. I specifically requested american standard fittings and drilled holes after what happened to Lawn. He guided me all the way. 2 Quote Link to comment
Chris! Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Skimmer is BM-180A Nice, I love that skimmer used to run it on my 70g. I run a couple of its big brother, the BM-220A on a couple tanks now.... I don't wanna post the huge pic here and distract from your sexiness but I posted a skimmer cup comparison of those two and my SCA-302 in my 40B thread if you wanna check it out (its a page or two back). The 180 is a beast, but the 220 is a serious monster LOL The door hinges might need adjusting. Yeah probably got a little shifted in shipping, shouldn't be to bad for ya I specifically requested american standard fittings and drilled holes after what happened to Lawn. He guided me all the way. Good call, definitely to beautiful of a tank not to do it right! 2 Quote Link to comment

brad908 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I still don't understand why the corner overflow isn't standard on the 36x18x18. No one wants an ugly center overflow. I made a thread in the cadlights section a while back, and per usual, their response made no sense as to why they don't. Looks awesome 1 Quote Link to comment
Lawnman Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Skimmer is BM-180AThe door hinges might need adjusting. I specifically requested american standard fittings and drilled holes after what happened to Lawn. He guided me all the way.There are a few screws on the hinges to fix that. I messed around with mine and got the doors centered. This tank is just beautiful.If you look at the reflection in the overflow it looks like a naked lady with her back to the tank 10 Quote Link to comment

RK_tek Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I finally reached the end of this thread! I've been trying to catch up for two days now and every time I thought I got to the last page, another Kate Upton. Kat, your ghetto-ness inspired me to fix my kinked return line with the proper parts after running it for a year. Quote Link to comment
TristanC Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Hey Kat if you had a second could you pop into my thread and give me some feedback on my most recent post? Its regarding gulfliverock, Thanks! Quote Link to comment

NorthGaHillbilly Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Anybody have a link to 3/4" low profile female threaded bulkheads? low profile in what way? the back side of the bulkhead? if so take a dremel to the back and chop em shorter 1 Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 Short and standard: Quote Link to comment
NorthGaHillbilly Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Just make sure not to use PVC pipe cutters on them, they are more brittle than PVC and will shatter 4 Quote Link to comment

The short bulkheads are available, just need to find the right size and threads Those will likely take days (especially now that its the weekend.... unless you have a LFS with some on hand...) dremel is quick and can be done tomorrow if you don't already have one to just do it now 1 Quote Link to comment
