Apex controller? Interesting, I gotta look into that...
Slowest build ever? Possibly. It's hard to find time to work on this tank for me. Its got some substrate, water is in it, and controller is installed. Gate valve is dialed in so it seems.
Only problem is 1 bulkhead leaks. The one that is a thread fit. I need to tighten it, so that means cutting the pvc so I can tighten it and then regluing it back on.
Here is a picture, cause that's all that really matters at the end of the day.

Yeah, I would not rush it, you want to get it right the first time.
I would offer to help, but it looks like you have it under control. Next time you do a rebuild in the store or something though, I will totally help if you need an extra hand, especially cause I love working with plumbing and stuff. I find it's like some kind of a puzzle but without the pointlessess

Wow nice on the sump being able to holding enough water. Sucks to be in a power outage though. Can't wait to see how it looks with everything set up. Mmmmm...

:spoton: .oO Right on Cory, it's a good start. If moving I would defiantly be putting any major plans of decor on hold for after setting it up ..... again ....Aquarium Co-Op said:I have to post a picture of my green water monster. Tank is in limbo while we find a place we want to move too. Once we move hopefully I'll spend time setting it up correctly. Right now it's just growing congo tetras.
