*EDIT*

I tried to move my blog over here, but there's a limit on how many pictures you can post.

Find my blog here... (http://www.myreef.com/smf/index.php?topic=21.0)

Oh yeah, sometimes my server gets a little stupid and the forum won't pop up. This is usually the case after I upload a lot of pictures. I'll show up at some point. :)

I'd not yank it on ya.... wow, scared me for a minute there... took 2-3 mins to actuallt load the whole page and images, thought I was on dial-up again instead of a DS3 :)

Project looks like it's coming along nicely though!

(BTW if you want to move your log just LMK, I can find a quick and painless way to get'r done.

There's a limit on the board for pictures and I can't post as many as I'd like...

The only limit left now is no more than 10 attachments to a single post. Everyone should be set BACK to unlimtied atttachments and disk space.

I was checking out your project log. It looks like everything is really coming along. I was curious to know what you are planning for a overflow guard. I am planning on doing something similiar with my new 38 gallon minus the close loop.

What do you mean "overflow guard"? I bent some acrylic last night for the actual overflow part. It's not the cleanest thing, but I think it will suffice. I haven't updated my blog in a few days because I've been lazy. I took some pictures of the dual-temperature controller assembly and the acrylic bending.

Yeap. That is exact what I meant. I am just curious on things like basic size and how you attached it. What even you post will be fine I am sure.

I haven't attached it yet. I took a scrap piece of acrylic that I had in the garage. It was about 12" x 4" or 5". I bent it around a pot in my oven so it formed a semi-circle. Then I painted the inside black. I'm going to use weld-on to join it to a flat piece on the bottom and trim that bottom piece to match. After that I'm going to silicone it to the tank.
