I'm starting my build thread and getting some pics up so people will leave me alone and stop asking for pics. :bigsmile:

Here's the test run:

The pics were quick and dirty with no tripod. I'll get better ones up at some point. I like the scape so far but I want to work on the right side a little. The left side is golden.


Here's my new Bubble Magus skimmer:

I just set it up a few hours ago so it's still breaking in. Holy cow, this thing is a beast. It puts my PM RL skimmer to shame. Not that the RL skimmer is bad, this one is just that good.

Here's the closet behind my tank:

I currently have my top off container, two Ecotech battery backups and a power strip in there. Not too exciting....yet! I have plans to add a frag tank in there, some shelfs and eventually a dosing pump. I think I'll just into the frag tank's overflow so it'll get pushed into the sump on the display.

I hooked up my new Bubble Magus skimmer yesterday. WOW! I can't believe how well this thing works! I don't think it's even fully broke in yet and looks what it's collected in 1.5 days:

I'm going to need to get a collection container or else I'll have to clean the collection cup out everyday!

I'll have some up soon!


Nice bro!

Thanks man. Nowhere near the beauty I saw over at your house but hopefully within time. :P


Your pics are broken!

I know! I had DNS problems yesterday. Specifically, dynDNS decided to close my account and remove my domain from their NS's with no warning. Should be back up most places. Not here at RS yet though.

Looks great man, new tanks are always fun!

My only dislike is the Lack of a background (would drive me crazy seeing the wall behind) and seeing the wires from the lights. Takes away from its sleekness, but im not sure there is a fix for that without a canopy.

Yeah, that will be addressed in the future. I'm going to do the shadow box thing so there will be a "background" in the future.
