Yes video when done will be posted. 
Background is back on the table since I got the 1500 to stop leaking. However, I am still interested in getting this done quicker so a differnt type of background might be used now.
Will leak test again tonight. I think I got them all covered with what pond armor I had left and it wasn't setup enough for a test last night.

Ok a few pictures.. I know you are jonesing for something new..
Getting the FRP installed. (Fiberglass Reinforced Panels). Used in food services for the walls. Since I am not doing a top like the last tank needed something safe, strong, and moisture proof.

Thanks..
The DIY background is out. I really was not looking forward to 2-3 weeks more in delay just for the background.
So, I have been talking with the folks @ Designs By Nature http://www.designsbynature.net/ and I am getting a background from them. Will take me 1 day to install and 1 day to cure the silicone and then I fill and turn on the pumps. Well worth it I think. Also then I don't have to worry about the concrete, any weird water issues, etc etc.
Plus, I really need to get this done so I can get the other house on the market.
