Thanks for sharing Marc. Did I see two different CO2 tanks, is one just a spare? I really like the shelf and ledge, my wife and I try to recycle as much as possible around here.

I only have one Co2 tank. I took pictures at different points, both prior to putting things back and when in place. I hope to get started on the outside of the fishroom soon.

i like how the 270 lives on!! (in memory and spirit)
also, a while back i brought up an idea about putting a drip ledge/ splash guard/ water protector for your DJ switches.
i know your butcher block board overhangs so it may prevent any dripping, but i was just wondering your opinion on it, and if you think its still needed with the overhanging butcherblock.

I still have the room and can attach one, but haven't yet.

Because the drain is tied in and has had time to cure, I finally flipped over Drain #5 in the 400g. That drain feeds directly into the refugium, so when I pulled out the Durso to invert it to the correct orientation, it sounded pretty dramatic. What I didn't know it would do was quickly fill up the overflow in the frag tank and overflow into the frag tank itself. I guess 1.5" in diameter of water shooting down the pipe was sufficient to race back up a 1" line into the frag tank. It was a surprise, but fortunately nothing negative could happen.

7.4 for your ph??

That's the pH controller for a Calcium Reactor. 7.4 is working at keeping the alk at 8 dKH.

Looks nice!

Marc are you going to attach a piece for the back of the tank at some point or are you leaving it viewable from both sides?

I may put something on the back, but I enjoy the tank from three out of four sides. So maybe for pictures I'll put something up.

You could just use a piece of removible black acrylic

Maybe. That would require me to do it. And remove it. And put it back. And put it somewhere out of my way. It's definitely not on my To Do list currently.

Like the paint color, good choice. Fish room coming together nicely. Anxious to see how the dual pump thing a ma jiggy comes together for water change automation.

cheers!
