Nice set up. Must be nice to have all that room to work with.

Thanks. Building the stand was actually easy. It took me about 2 days start to finish. I will post some updated pics soon.

Damn looks like I was there

Triggerjay · 09-26-2007, 01:48 PM

The CL pump leaks at the inlet. I ran out of the right tape for the threads, and used white instead of the pink.. So, I am off to the hardware store!

lol, NO.. I wouldn't have all the leaks if he had of done it. I think I have things under control now. I had to go get some of that epoxy leak stop stuff.. I must have got some bad glue.. All the new stuff (blue glue) holds fine, but everything I glued monday (clear glue) leaked. Nothing like plumbing a tank twice!

Octoman · 09-26-2007, 06:12 PM

I've always used the blue glue. Never liked the clear stuff because it's harder to tell when you miss a spot!

The build is looking really good. I can't wait to see this thing lit up!
