Finally an update. I've got everything put together. Only thing that's missing is the water.




Used Aqua C EV-120. Free thanks to my brother. You can also see my American DJ switchs installed


Shot looking up into the stand. Meanwells mounted on the back and rope lighting. Rope lighting was $3 at Home Depot


Another shot inside the stand


Drain lines on the back with unions on each end to allow for easy removal.


DIY overflow box. Made the cuts with my tablesaw. I just used my regular wood blade and it shows. Lots of chip out but I think I was able to hide it mostly. I'm sure it will be harder to tell once algae is growing on it too. I just couldn't justify spending $50 on a blade I'd use once.


Inside the box. I'm doing a Herbie overflow. Hope it works.

Thats it for now. Gotta make 50 gal of saltwater and get some sand. I'm also going to redesign the light box. I hate the way it looks right now with the electrical conduit and RapidLED hanging kit. I think I'll put it all inside a box or something.
