My Water and Rock Storage project this week...

[eandrews]

Many thanks to a friend who has eased out of the hobby a bit (Flyingarmy)

I went by and picked up a 275g storage container, 70g rubbermaid LR tub, a 400w MH pendant, and tons of plumbing and pumps I'm ready to officially construct my laboratory downstairs...



70g LR tub... I will more than likely cap off the inlets/outlets and throw a mag7 or 9 in there for circulation..

The Fresh Water Holding tank...

it has a nice valve so I don't flood the house...

Here's the 400w pendant that will go over the LR tub more pics to come once I have it all in place

After a few hrs this afternoon, I got quite a bit done with the new setup...

The big storage container is in place and the plumbing on the pump done... I had to do some capping and silicone work on the tub so it will sit for 24-48hrs, got the 400w MH moved over the tub for tomorrow and got the waste line on the RODI ran about 30 more feet up into our flower beds.

The 400w pendant has some serious output, I have it about 5ft off the floor and it is bright even with the garage door open and sun coming in..
