My 90 Gallon Reef Tank!!!!

Had a few beers... had the courage to post a FTS

 

hahaha, beer+camera+aquarium+3reef= pretty much what i do every night.

 

Damn camera never captures what I see though

 

ha, smear a finger print over the lens. will look closer to what you see

 

Well I finalized my canopy plans..... Start building this weekend.

Canopy


What the complete project looks like when canopy is done.

 

Looks good tatted, really interested to see the finished product. I love diy projects and anything in general that requires using a power tool ;D. Keep us posted!

 

very true Tatted4ever
tank looks good though , but sometimes it hard to capture the colours accurately

good luck with the canopy build

Ive been doing alot of work to my setup in regards to plumbing and my fuge.

Ive redone all my plumbing and have gone herbie style cause I was tired of noise and bubbles.

Herbie overflow is truly brilliant.

I have taken the herbie method to my new fuge that I have installed. I had a custom acrylic box made measuring 24x16x16 with 1" bracing around the top.

It was a lot of work and thinking. And it has turned out flawlessy for me. Very thrilled and happy.

Its complete and Im just doing sime fine tuning to the gate valves.

This is were the bulk of the work has been done in relation to my setup.

You've been very busy, Patrick! Clean work, man.

How long has the Herbie been in action?

 

Wow, that looks great!! You should be very proud of yourself. That's awesome!
