Been taking care of someone at the hospital for past week, so nothing done on the tank.

Most likely won't be any progress other than finishing out the room until the weather warms up enough to ship the Pond Coat. No telling how long that's going to be.

Some sexiness...plumbing parts!!! Is it weird that I got all excited about these? Bulkheads and screens. Those are standard 8.5" x 11" pieces of paper to give you an idea of how big these are.
Very nice. Yes, it is weird but don't worry. Bulkheads get me excited too! Where did you get those screens?

Based on what you've read in this thread, where on the back wall would you place the four bulkheads? Maximum of 2 in any of the wall plumbing cutout sections (the spaces between the framing that are just plywood). There are four cutout sections on each side of the back of the tank.

Top
Mid-Upper
Mid-Lower
Bottom

and of course they are on the left or right side of the tank.

In example,

Right Bottom - Two
Left Bottom - Two

or

Right Mid-Upper 1
Right Bottom 1
Left Mid-Lower 1
Left Top 1

Let me know where you'd put them.
