very nice progress it looks amazing. CHanging filter socks is going to be rough though in that back corner. Hopefully you have a little child to crawl in there. LOL
UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!! So i was able to acquire a sequence 3600 gph pump and ultima II 1000 filter. $500 for both. I thought it was a good deal, seeing as how the pump brand new is like $250 and the filter is $400. Tuesday the bulkheads come in so i can do up the plumbing and get it FILLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! here are some pics.
and this is a 10"+ abalios geo. the 2 others are like 6"
so how much is it going to weight? hope you live on the ground floor! I think the tank looks awesome, I hope you do it up with some nice fish, lookin forward to seeing it set up
