Dazzitis subsided, did a little more...

Most of the electrics are installed.
Gave semi rusted interior beams a sand back and painted... pics a bit dark.. ohwell



Started digging out a hole for the sump which will be outside. I want my tanks inside to be reachable at top tier without a ladder and able to gravity feed from a low level.

Thanks to you both for showing me around your fish room and the new shed. You guys have some great ideas and I look forward to seeing it all when it finaly gets done.
I have no doubt that even after starting well after Daz, and your shed construction is more complicated I think you guys will be finished well before him biggrin.gif biggrin.gif tongue.gif
