A bow front stand would be pretty tough to do. I bet you could build one though! Can't wait to see the crate Sean!
thanks for all the comments guys! hopefully, it will be as nice as it is in person. sean sent me some pictures of the stand last night before he crates it today. hopefully the shipping company is gentle! -Mike

Here it is all crated up and ready to go. It left today and will get here next week. Look at the monster Sean built. I am sure it will come unscratched!

Mike- I will PM you tracking information now.
Make sure you have at least 3, preferably 4 guys on hand to help you move this crate. It was heavier than I thought, but 3 of us were able to lift it into the back of the truck one end at a time. You'll have a lift gate to get it off the truck on your end, but you'll want help to move it to the house.

Its the building and lifting these darn crates in my truck that I don't like so much I have to recruit quite a few guys to get it done.
Mike's 7 footer was a tad bit easier than your 10 foot monster Gabriel

Gabriel I think yours is a tad bit larger than mine. Well its 11 here and it hasnt arrived yet. I am getting very anxious, and can't wait to get it home! Will keep you guys updated. Meanwhile, the tank is being built and shoudl be done in a week atleast, and Melev has started construction on the new sump. This project is so much fun! -Mike

Stand and canopy never showed up yesterday. Gotta call the shipping company. Anyways, I was bored and took some pics of my "Gadgets"
GEO kalk and 618 calcium reactor AC3 and DC8 I have another DC8 on the way, so I will have a total of 16 controllable outlets. I also have to get an internet adapter, so I can view the controller's webserver. -Mike

I also am going to try the prodibio method on this new tank. I ordered 30 ampoules of each supplement:
Biogest Biotrace Iodi+ Stroni+ Reefbooster Bioptim Hopefully I will get results like Iwan has been showing us all. His tank is an inspiration to me, and a tons of other reefers here on RC. -Mike

What you all have been waiting for!
After struggling to get the damn thing outta the truck and onto the lift gate, we finally got the stand into my garage. I un-crated it in about 20-30 minutes. I think I unscrewed 200 screws! lol.
The stand came with no damage what so ever. It looks just as great as it does when Sean sent me pics before it left. I can't wait to get the tank on it! Here are som pictures. The Crate Sides Opened Up Canopy Angle shot (stupid weight bench in the way lol.) Here Is the Back And Fianlly, all the pieces of wood from the crate! That's all for now folks! -Mike

Looks great man, you'll love the ACIII with the web server, makes it great when your not at home and want to know whats going on!

I have been messing around with the AC3 on my current tank, and it is a really cool gadget.
The tank is being eurobraced today, pictures will be as early as tomorrow! Can't wait! -Mike

I think the ACIII is totally worth the money. Keeps my tank temp very steady.
I did a little doodling on this. I love this thing, my temp is from 79.9-83 which isn't a bad fluctuation for no chiller when its 85+ outside and I don't have the a/c on! |

AquaNotes Lite is a free download. The full version which has a web server, email and what not cost like $70 give or take. I figured with the ACIII everything is built into the unit so I could get away with the Lite version of AquaNotes. It emails and has the embedded web server, no point in having 2 things to due the same process.

So I can still have the webserver without aquanotes correct?? Thanks again.

The ACIII has a built-in web server. Read through your manual. Just to to Setup > Net Setup and then setup the subnet mask, the dns server(s) and the ip of the unit then restart unit. Once its back up hit that ip you set it to in your web browser and then it should prompt you for a login. Default is admin/1234 (this can be changed via the controller setup).
This is all presuming you have it hooked up to a functioning ethernet port. |
