    Upgrade options

    Thank you for pointing this out. When someone steps into my house, the first thing they would notice is one side of the tank. I would prefer to leave it open as well.

    Any Electronic Guru's Out There??

    I would be interested to see some responses too. Sometime back I had envisioned a project like this.
