Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
It turns out that I need a little more or this contact paper, so I had to order another roll. I won't use a good portion of the second roll, so if anyone wants to reskin their stand let me know and you can have the remainder.
The stand is finished inside - I've sanded and fixed the gouges on the exterior and I've removed all of the top and bottom trim. I am going to refinish the exterior - pics to come.
Weld-on #3, #4 , #16 or #33 depending on your needs. 3 & 4 are like water and it enters the seam via capillary action and 16 & 33 are much thicker. Go on their site and it explains when to use each.
It is 72" x 27" x 27" - I bought if from a guy from Lodi on Manhattan Reefs and thx. My 120 I built a stand and canopy for it but this time I'm just going to fix up the existing stand because I'm eager to get it up and running - here is the thread from last build.
I have the powdered citric acid that I use because it doesn't have that bad smell. I also ordered the marine background from Universal Rocks so that will cover up the mess on the back wall and overflow.
Working on the stand now:
Took off the doors and cleaned the inside then I sealed the bottom seams with caulk.
Sprayed the bottom with white Flexseal so that if I have any leaks, it will be contained in the bottom of the stand and won't leak on the floor.
My name is Eric and I live in Holmdel. Here is my current setup - an SCA 50 that has been up and running since 2017. I had a 120 that ran for many years until I shut it down after Sandy wiped out the entire tank, We moved to a house this January and now that I have the room, I'm doing my dream...
