Looks like you have a sprinkler system hooked up to your tank!

AQTCJAK · 09-03-2007, 08:41 PM

Kinda looks that way

Looks challenging. If this thread was the first I read when starting my reef, I would have just given up. ha ha ha. AMAZING.

I learned a lot watching him put it together. He worked really hard on it and my parents are very grateful. My excuse for dating him was the ponytail, just gotta love it

No way you would have just call me to do it. I tend to go to the extreme on just about everything I do. So this was just a opportunity for me to have more fun so to speak

I Do!! But almost ZERO on plumbing skills.

Jack, ever wanted to make a Road Trip to Western North Carolina? We can't plumb anything outside (have to go DEEP to get below freeze line) but I could use some help when it comes time to start doing my simple 90g set up.

Looks GREAT! Jack do you get paid by the ounce of blue PVC glue used?

It could be worse... it could be blood red instead

Keep up the good work and keep us posted!!

Hey Jack...get a haircut will ya? Dammed hippie...

Hey waidaminit...I resemble that remark myself...

heh-heh!
Quite a plumbing job...it'll be interesting to watch the progress of this project.

Looks like fun. The plumbing job alone is worth more then the tank. Good work Jack. It will be cool to see some water run through this.
I would like to know more about the area you did all this work. It is outside. In a shed? How are you going to keep the elements out of there? I guess her parents didn't realize what a date with there daughter was gonna get them!
