Electrical work continues, lights purchased, filling sump system and testing for leaks. circulation tomorrow in the filter system, hang lights, complete one side of equipment shed. Booster pump is in and running. much better performance. at 60psi but will bump it to 65PSI, main system pump batt. back up in place. should run the dolphin amp master for apprx. 2 to 3 hours. long enough to get generator going.

Its a mess but, we have power to the equipement shed. one side is just about finished. other side remains for 2nd circuit. Oh and by the way Running water. havent filled tank yet will do this week. No leaks, no shorts so looks good so far. couple pics for fun. real messy but will clean up soon enough.

sasquatch · 05-29-2007, 12:47 AM

I am very excited to seeing you get some water in this and see the system working. Good luck with the fill this week man!

Craig Manoukian · 05-29-2007, 01:52 AM

Electrical rough-in, pulling wire, and electrical finishes look very professional! I can almost hear the water running from here! Awesome job as always!

cioutlaw · 05-29-2007, 02:10 AM

Boy this has been one very long road..you have some patients for sure!! Look forward to seeing it finished.

Dentoid · 05-29-2007, 01:15 PM

O.K. when are the free tours of this facility?

I'll have to make a special trip for the grand opening! John, I've started to turn gray since you started your thread. Hope I'm around to see the finished reef!

jhnrb · 05-30-2007, 01:52 AM

The system is full and running. not all equipment on yet. just enough ro water to fill tank and sump system. 5 barrels and just enough to keep sump from sucking air. so probably 7 barrels at 55 gal will be the total with refuge and skimmer, kalk reactor, calcium reactor etc.

tank is full of water, main pump is on and water is circulating.
Moon lights on only.

SORRY FOR THE POOR PIC ON THE MOON LIGHT. THE WHITE IS GLITTER LINES.
