The beginning of my new FOWLR tank.

[cali_reef]

It is almost ready after some minor setbacks during the move from its former home.

Thanks to Badcoffee's help, it is now being water tested in my garage. Here is a video of it from last night with a borrowed wave box to stimulate water movement.

I can't play it either. I bet the tank looks better, than when I saw it on the floor of your garage.

I can see it using my VLC media player -nice......careful-that metal tape measure can scratch!

The tank is not filled because it is setting on my garage's floor, I am leak testing the tank right now. The tank would be "almost" as full as normal, the euro bracing helps in keeping the water in.

Yeah john, the parameters are updated every two minuets, I need to fix the link where they are plotted on 24 hour and weekly chart.

Not sure yet, finding 7-8 willing bodies on a weekend in the summer is hard to do.

The glue job we did is holding tight so far .
