Following for the wrasses! Which ones are you planning?

Do y'all think this will work in mine?

We could have some fun with that!!

Well I have already in other tanks a Melanarus, Radiant for Halio species. PinTail, Rose Band, and Blue throat for Fairies. Linespot and a Carpenters for Flashers so those will all go in. I hope to be able to get another couple in as well eventually but we’ll see how it goes.

Almost forgot my little guy. C lunatus

A couple pictures just because the thread needs some color.

I have that same remote but my lights are 3 pucks not a string. I have a string like that under my cabinets in the kitchen

I felt like the string was never going to end. Only planned to wrap the main cabinet but theres was enough length to wrap the whole electrical compartment too. Came out ok. Wondering how long the adhesive will actually keep them stuck.

Well we made some headway. Plumbing is in place. Obviously no leak checks but now I can at least start figuring out wiring, controller mounting etc with the sump installed. Funny how it still feels like Not enough space!

Anyone else hate when you spend 30 minutes trying to remove the left over adhesive from a sticker on a new item?? Drives me nuts :mad: Rant complete

Lighter fluid.

Anyone have a good way to find exact center over tank when ceiling mounting lights? I’m always off a half inch one way or another. There’s also a specific tool I’m thinking of to help and I have no idea what its called... It has a long string or wire that hangs down with a pointed weight that would settle over a point.

i know that probably doesn’t help much.

Really??? I’ll give that a go, thanks!

Plumb bob, not to be confused with sponge bob

Acetone for the adhesive.

Can't go wrong with googly eyes ! ! !

I was going to suggest it when I started reading your post @Scurvy but you came about it, albeit round about(Yes), yourself

Oh ya goo-gone or orange-oil for stickers

That’s the one!

Acetone and nail polish remover usually take some of the plastic with it! Or at least the color from it.
