NeveSSL's 180g Mixed Reef

Small update... the top and bottom frames of the stand are together. :) Now to decide on the height!

Lol... It could be! :)

Thanks, Nate! Slowly, but surely.

Also, I went back through my thread and placed actual pics in the posts instead of clickable thumbnails. :)

And we have a stand skeleton! :) I'm working with my wife on the aesthetics.

In sad news, I believe my male clownfish has died. :-/ Kinda bummed.

I'm not sure, man. At all. The female was her happy, begging-for-food self tonight and seems fine. I need to check my parameters to make sure everything is in line.

Rick came over last night... after taking his kids around the neighborhood for them to get the adults some candy, we raided their bags and went to the garage to do a little work on the tank. :)

We tipped the tank on its front and Rick setup the Ghost template on the back. Then we drilled!

Moving along! I'm hoping our Jebao group buy comes in soon. I'm just about to the point that I could set the tank up if I had my pump. It wouldn't be ready for corals as I don't have my lighting yet, but it would be ready for our fish to be in our house and to start tweaking. :)

Brandon
 
Haha! Yep!

Brandon
 
It's starting to gain momentum.

Also started scraping the old paint off... This is going to take a while!

I went with 3/4" sheathing and 3/4" foam, Nate.

Brandon
 
Went ahead and finished scraping the paint off tonight.

Thanks, man! Yes, they were! That is a large amount of paint to scrape off. Haha!
