Small update...

Last night, I broke out my weldon #4 and put my first 2 pieces together... It was an experience. I think I finnaly got it, though!

a also looked at fitting in the last 3 dividing pieces of sump in place, and noticed that I've slightly miscalculated. I didn't allow for baffle width in my bubble trap spacing. So, I'm left with only 1.5" of space between the outer and the inner baffles!... .5" short! Plus the width of the middle baffle! = .75" short! So, I've got a question!

Will water flow okay with only about .5" spacing between the baffles?

I hope so!

Alright!!!! HERE WE GO!!!!!! This is THE week! Full force water test!!!

Saturday, I got ALOT done! (pics later tonight!)

Here's what all I got done:

- I have the hood attached to the supporting back posts. (pics will explain)
- got the front ("door") of the hood attached and hinged.
- put the handle on the main stand door.
- The last pieces of the sump are in place. It is now complete!
- installed some wire management pieces in the stand.
- wired up one of the 2 ballasts, and put it in its final Location.
- installed my Internal Stand GFCI plugs.

I really dont have much left to do. Everything left, is small. Here's that list:

- Install the light for the fuge.
- Plumb the overflow line, and the return.
- Wire the last ballast
- Setup the ATO system.
- buy some LR
- Get 1 cocktail shrimp!

I should have the system in working condition by tomorrow! And, in its final resting place and wet by wednesday!!!!! Wish me luck!

Alright, like Bob, I'm done!!!! (I think) The only part left is to find an ATO resivoir and put it in place, and to put a guard on the CLM feed bulkhead.... Here are the Finalized pics!!! Please, be honest and tell me what ya think. All opinions positive, or negative are good, trust me!



















I wired these 3 GFCI outlets in parallel. So that if one trips, it doesn't cut power to the others.
