Yes/

Reworked some of the plumbing. Been crazy at work so not as much done as I would like. Definitely coming down the home stretch though.

These pics feed the right tank. Running the intake through the chiller and then tee'd it off for my UV.

Drain lines are ran and last tank returns plumbed in.

Knock out the accessories tomorrow (hopefully) and then work on some wiring.

looking good Mike, you must be close to plumbing being done...

 

[Reefinny]

yes I am close. Hopefully water next week. Darn work getting in the way! LOL

 

[ravi197699]

only reason why it took me this long is my job, only I have to work on my tank is Saturday evening and Sunday, I have to keep wify happy as well so it tough..

 

[Reefinny]

Just about ready to start running my electric.

Looking really good Mike.....so neat !!!! Love the color of the pvc also. Did you build in any way to clean those long runs on the pvc? After 5 or 6 years you won't believe the stuff that builds up in the pipes, especially around the turns...

Yes they have unions on them.

Got some more done. Made the electrical cabinets. Laid out the controllers, now to drill the holes and paint.

Going with gloss white and black cord grommets.

The power bricks will be mounted below the controller board.

[ravi197699]

looks great...

 

[Reefinny]

Thanks. Need to rework the one that goes between the 2 tanks, it is to close to the waterline. The one that is to the left of the longer tank is fine. Also need to figure what I am doing with the cables for the wavemakers. May need to cut them and make extensions.

 

[ravi197699]

I had to make extension cables for ecotech and all the pumps I am using then I had to mark those extension cables with names so I know which cable is for which pump, I bought parts for extension cables for ecotech from digikey, let me know and I can send you list, pretty easy, for jebao and gyre I bought extension cables and cut them in half and added length to the cables, too bad everyone sell extension cable for gyres and jebaos that are 39 " in length...

 

[Reefinny]

I needed them for the varios and octopulse. Coralvue had them so I ordered 6. Now I get to redo my board. LOL

 

[Reefinny]

So got all the plumbing done. Get my extension cables tomorrow, will finish running the electric and start filling her up!
