72x30x18 DIY build thread

Nothing crazy special. No new crazy updates. Cable project when I get back.

Took a bunch of pictures tonight. Pretty proud of acros. Even though they aren't growing crazy fast they aren't dying.

Algae side is beautiful. Generally things just look healthy with exception of the colt who melted from the size of a basket ball to nothing after fragging it. Wowsa.

And one octo in the bunch who might be splitting

Sucks.
sorry to hear about your loss.
 
Thanks sucks. Lids on again forever. I got caught up in the looks of the tank
I once did this as well. Or, rather... I got caught up in the laziness of putting the lid back on the tank lol
 
Sounds like you guys need a ParlaTop™** :face-with-monocle:







** no idea when I will actually be in a position to do these...

In-laws coming so I'm side-tracked with home improvements/cleaning. Plus I need to cleanup my shop first and add a HD to the computer so I have storage for the footage; And, @StatelineReefer hooked me up with a 5W laser to mess around with so I am rife with distractions!
 
I'm printing a Doser Table that hooks on my stand. I can send you the STL to modify if you want. Since the Jebao dosers have the controls on top and are supposed to stay horizontal...

oo I didnt know they're supposed to stay horizontal. I've got mine @85 degrees and it seems to work ok. but yes! would love to see what you've got; if you've needed it, probably someone else does too! will give you royalties in the form of ParlaCredits™. lol

Laser! That's dope.

Honestly beats me learning 3d printing. And building the cnc myself and learning all of that time wise lol
