Looks awesome guys! I'm really looking forward to see how the master (Teri) works here magic on the aquascape! That's going to be a tricky one for sure with that overflow. But I'm confident she will knock it out of the park.

I still need to get you guys your flake food from the GB. Maybe next weekend I can stop by and check it all out? If you plan to scape it this weekend, maybe I can help out with that too? Let me know.
 
Tank looks great guys. Perfect placement. I was looking back at the stand build and had a question. Did you follow the common template on RC for the framing? 2x4's or larger? Thanks in advance.
We used 2x6's. We had a frame we just extended it and reinforced it
 
The tank is plumbed in the lights are all in place. He closed loop is running doing a vinegar bath now.

I was going to start doing it today. I got a little roughed up with aquascaping yesterday the carpet nem stung me pretty good so I didn't want to put my arms and hands in the saltwater for a few days. So it will keep until next weekend.

It was definitely hard watching her get mauled by that demon! She was a trooper though and just kept on to finish working on Ryans scape.

I can totally understand why she didn't want to get working on their tank yet. She got it pretty good from the carpet.

Anyway, glad the closed loop is working good. At least Tony is good for something besides holding his hose! :cool: Seriously though, that looks great Ant. I can't wait to see this thing in action either.
 
those carpets can be bad asses…It doesn't take long either. Just a few seconds and they can sting pretty good..Ant next time you have to pee on it…or is that jelly fish…lol ill leave that one to you…ha ha…tank looks awesome nice find...

Yes and I think it remembered me he let me have it big time. Worst part I had to handle him twice. And I'm' still suffering from it. It flares up and itches worse than poison ivy and flares into large welts. It will probably be almost a month before it goes away. This is the worst I have ever been stung.
 
i'm still lost. hypothetically speaking, you do not have a generator. what would happen? would the tank drain down to where that bottom drain is? no right-bc it has no where to drain to since it's a closed loop? pardon my stupidity. i'm better with finance related topics lol
