    How the heck do you obtain karma?

    Oh, it only takes 3 minutes for the laser to make the sign, and 5 minutes to polish. He can have one if he wants!

    Oh almost forgot...nice weld job. I have been a welder for about 24 yrs now and love what I do. Now I just program robots to do the work.

    I thought it was Motor Cycles, not Motor Company? So when is this tank going together, or are we all going to have to wait and see?

    Looks to be a nice solid stand, Lucky that you had the chance to make it from Stainless steel will pay off in the future!

    I just finished my plumbing and stuff last night. I will post pics as soon as I get back home, and have the pictures uploaded... Otty, I will PM details on the sign... I will give you the one I have no worries, I can always get another one made anyway....
    For now it will be my lil shallow reef tank... Until I upgrade to a full blown reef. Thanks guys!

    Okay, so over the weekend I managed to get the basics out of the way.... Did a simple plumb job, no closed loops, just a return...
    It basically goes->tank->Overflow->Sump->Skimmer->return.... Nothing fancy, just keeping it simple.....
    Here are some pics of the tank, sump, and putting water in.
