Dave let just say: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hot dig it dog!!!

What an awesome stand! keep the pictures coming. Your tank set up will be one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. I put money on it now!

Excellent work Dave that is gonna be one awesome setup, keep us posted

Ya know... you guys have been great for my ego.

I pretty much took the night off working on the project, though I did give in a little and built some shelves for additives/freeze-dried food/testing regents on the right rear door.
Will probably get started on the sump in the morning. It's raining so I'll probably have to wait to paint it once the sun comes back out, but I hope to get it constructed up to that point and then I can start the canopy... plus I still have some preliminary lighting work to do, and other various odds & ends.
The big part of the project is done though... and it's quite a relief.

And here's a shot of the stand fan (for you fan fetishists out there)

And here's the shelves I mentioned in my previous post.

You sure those shelves won't fall off!!

And...
last but not least, is a shot of all the doors open on the stand. The electrical control panel is on the left side (you can see 1 of the doors open in the left front). Should give me plenty of access underneath.

Them shelves is glued and screwed, Johnny... they'll tear the door off the stand before they're coming off the door...

Hey, it may be just a screw in bracket, but hey, the man's got class.

Nice work, cowboy.

The plastic should be here in a little over a week (the 27th of February), and the tank is going to be installed in the house during the 3rd week of March... I can't wait.
The builder said the tank's already done, but it must've slipped his mind that he said he'd get me a pic of it... looks like I might have to remind him.

Thanks again, guys and gals.

Airborne Express just dropped off a new toy, so I thought I'd share...
A custom Stoneyreef Kalk Reactor, with a 17" height rather than the standard 24"... I think this is gonna work out good.

 

[Montanareefer]

Wow! Dave that looks really great. Really like my cal reactor from Stoneyreef as well!

 

[VINA DEL MAR]

Looks like it's been just like christmas at your house for awhile!

Yep... I've kept the shipping companies busy this month.
I think the best day will be next Friday when the tank finally arrives... then the real fun begins.
