In Wall Tank project

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
We're all waiting.....:) :)
 
nothing new i can not start again until the sump is ordered so i can find the best place to drill the tank.
i have a thread on sump info in the filtration forum, no answers yet.
 
Looking good so far, you gonna finish it with some drywall and access doors? Hang a nice icecap fixture from that alcove! Great location between the two couches btw! Wish I had my own house.
 
ok it should be finished by this weekend.
i ditched the reef idea and will go mini monster grow out semi planted tank.

Mini monster grow out is a much better idea.

i also fitted small wooden blocks to hold the light reflectors and bulbs.
here is the finished primed framework, i will finish coat tomorrow.
i also drilled through to the cupboard next to the tank as i had a plug socked fitted specifically for the tank when the stairs were built.
