Victoria M · Feb 9, 2017

I have been working on improving my fish room, and making a water change tower. I painted the room a new glossy light blue. what was I thinking with those other colors???

THIS IS HOW IT USED TO LOOK. I MOVED THE SHELVES, GOT A NEW SUMP, PAINTED, AND BUILT A NEW RO/DI WATER TOWER.

Next is a wire management improvement project. Believe it or not the top picture of the sump is after I improved the wires.

Haha, looks great! Ohh the joys of cords. If this is only your 2nd management session you will have one or two more to follow. Did painting the room make your skimmer go crazy/Ill effects? Get GFI outlets, Can't tell if they are or not...

Thank you. The circuit is dedicated to the aquarium and is GFCI. The skimmer and tank were fine but the paint was low VOC. So maybe helped. As to the cords...I have ignored them for 7 years LOL.

Nice! Great job. I'm kind of partial to the green but the brighter more neon the green the more I like it.

Victoria M · Feb 23, 2017

Thank for the compliment. It is brighter in person with the new light blue. All the colors were clearance colors from Lowes. So I got what I got.

I have been tring to get my husband to help me finish the ceiling but he wants to focus on getting the tank looking good. ok by me! lets get started!

Got everything plumbed. The ro di line is run up to the ceiling to over to the top of the rotomold container, valve works easily and is water tight, and the hose is disconnected hidden behind the brute container. I am so excited to have this part completed. Also mounted a water detector I had just zip stripped up.

wow, Neil, I never saw this. I was annoyed by old threads not having the end of the story so I took a look at my old threads and found this. I have a lot of unfinished stories too! this one however got incorporated into my rebuild thread.
