55 in progress

[TimSchmidt]

This weekend my to do list is:

1. 30% water change.
2. Build new 30 gallon sump/fuge.
3. Clean up the wiring on the new lighing (left them long just in case, now I can them up)
4. Adjust heating.
5. Switch from flexible tubing to PVC
6. Purchase new RO/DI container

I really like your lighting system... Looks like the inside of a race car engine, clean and fast...

Thanks! I really enjoyed your threads. I learned a lot from you.

Here are some updated shots. I completed everything but #5 on my list. I just don't know about the bulkheads I have on my tank and what PVC piece to use to attach. I thought I knew but my test bulkhead did not thread onto the PVC well. It went only 1 thread deep and it's now locked up. I think maybe the threading is different. bah...
