Well 2 months down the road I am still only half way there. But its getting close,

Anyway I have the tank and all my accessories at home and waiting on arrival of the cabinet which i expect next week.

Here is so photos so far of the tank and all the accessories and the custom Pipes i had to make up as the normal bends dont fit over lip.

Once i get cabinet I will be getting some setting up photos.

As you can see on my table i have 3 x 4 outlet power boards also plan is to mount them neatly and have everything seperatly switched.

I also have a huge amount of lime stone holey rocks , but havnt taken a photo of them yet will get photos of them on weekend.

Thanks for looking will update as the weeks go on.








New rescape, Also installed a new filter,
removed the internal pump and removed the china canister,
installed a new FX5, Awesome pump. the fx5 absolutely pumps through the water.
So now i have the FX5 and the Eheim should keep water clean.

Looking good!

I like how u've made the custom pipes, good idea! I've got some tanks where I've had issues with the bracing being too wide too.

If you've got more progess shots to come then we can move this thread into the Journal section later if u like.

Going to look good, why get a cab from over east?

[nvrenuf]

Yes please move it to the right section i just missed it when posting.

Morely Aquarium's as do couple places use this guy over east, he does good quality apparently. just takes his time.

tank and pipe work looks great tim

[dazzabozza]

Is the tank made by Morley? Looks like a quality build.

[nvrenuf]

Yep paul From Morley has organised the whole lot for me.
He built tank and ordered cabinet. He did a great job of the tank. I love the black silicon look over the clear.
god damn this thing was heavy though.

[nvrenuf]

Best thing I did was install a Fluro light in the cabinet where pumps are, makes life so much easier when working on them etc.
and all individual switches in there also.
here some pics of the fish so far.
