    The clean up begins!!

    after the scariest water test of my life, everything passed!

    here it is clean with a some furniture polish on the wood. (looks great)
    [​IMG]
    i like the starfish handles. (what great details)
    [​IMG]

    and here is another shot of the lights on the DIY light rack.

    with the purchase of this house, we have just the right spot for the tank. its right here where these book shelves and seat are!!!! (we will keep one book shelf on each side for my storage, but untill then. These have to go!!

    what better way to make the wife happy the to let her do some DEMO. it puts a smile on her face, and she kind of forgave me for buying a 8" tank!!!
