THAT is just NASTY sick. Man - that moving canopy is something else!

A friend of mine has a shop near the Port of Miami, and he's a Crestron dealer. Some of their stuff is just out of this world! He does alot of work over there like Fisher Island, etc., where the big $ live!

That's SICK! We sell Crestron at work and some of the panels are out of this world! They are SO MUCH fun to play with! They can do everything! I never thought about setting one up like that for the tank...hmm....

Maybe when I get a raise, haha!

I love technology and gadgets. I have always wanted a Crestron system. But isn't supposed to be about the fish.


Aww I am just jealous.

Hey guys, thanks for the nice words about my build! I've been busting my hump trying to get it done by the end of the month. I'll be putting the overflow divider in tonight and will be test filling the entire setup on Monday.

That tank is absolutely unreal.
It looks REALLY nice in those last pictures.

Rimless tanks are a sight to behold...

Where can one learn to make cabinets like that? I always wanted to learn how to make furniture.

Thanks guys.
ninjamini, you can find a lot about building cabinets just buy doing a google search on it. I never was able to build them as nice before I got a pocket screw kit. Here's a link to the one I use http://www.kregtool.com/products/pht...?PRODUCT_ID=10

Other than that, the only other tips I have is to make sure you have a nice sharp blade on your saws, have a helper to help cut the large boards to ensure they are very accurate, and measure many times before cutting.

BTW, I see you're a Sirius rep...You going to CEDIA next month?
