You think this weekend you'll have water in? 1smile1

Nice Jim. Glad you almost have water going into the tank. haha

I'll actually have some "wet pics" to post on the BAR forum..lol.

That's what I'm shooting for. I have to move a freezer and take off a FRP panel first to get to the other overflow box...then plumb the last 2 stand pipes. Otherwise I would have been done already...nothing is easy with this build. :sad:

Let's do this! No need to be here posting when you can work on the tank. Haha!

I climbed in the tank and took a pic of the standpipes I did the other day. I actually have quite a bit of room in the overflow boxes and will try putting the Tunze Streams in there first.

 

[gimmito]

Of course I couldn't take a picture of one right overflow box without showing the left one done also....just for you John.

Looks like it will be "water test weekend."

 

[gimmito]

Yo Jim, when you gonna do the lights?

I'm waiting on some prices from EZtube for the light rack or I might have a local welder make me one.

Also is that just regular hose water or RO water?

Just regular water for the water test, no need to waste all that RO.
