I'm in awe man, and I'm not easily impressed ;) Looking phenomenal!

I'll read through that flow pipe article tomorrow, and you can PM me with what remaining questions you have with it. (Or we can discuss it here if you don't mind the hijack.)
I appreciate it. I'll pm you, but probably I will let everyone in a little of it so that we can all learn for future reference.

Turn it into a giant reef with some sharks!! :naughty::grinno:
Yeah, I'm not rich lol. Catfish are my thing, but my goal for incase I ever get rich is to make a fish house with a 30,000 gal catfish tank on one side, and a 30,000 gal shark tank on the other. It would just be a hallway with a tank on each side. About 8' deep. A lone light hanging in the hallway with a low wattage bulb would be it. So when you walk through it you'll get flashes of giant sharks and catfish all around you. lol. Room painted black, and interior of tanks black also.

Looking awesome keep up the great work.
Thanks. Hopefully I'll make a lot more progress as fast as this past week. Going to be a few days before I can do anymore though.

Wonder what the gallonage of my garage would be if I were to seal it up to the ceiling. lol. I'd have to rebuild the walls though. They are too weak to hold water pressure.
my garage is 6000 cu ft.
Roughly 60,000 gals lol.

YES, a large fly river turtle would love it. But just one because they hate each other for some reason.
Got my wheels churning. Might have to save up enough to get one, or maybe someone wants to get rid of one lol.

On another note I found a drain for the outlet today. So that's good news. Probably as stated before not going to be able to work on this much until the weekend.
