Well i am gettinf ready to go from a 39 to a rr 75 tank
so i decicde ti would be a good time to get an ro system and quit going to walmart
with five gallon buckets as used to hold the
i also want a place to store evey thing and have a nice amount of
saltwater and ro ready i want to water changes to be easy and less messy than siphioning
another goal is to have 2 deadicated circet breakers for the tank
i want to be able to switch indivigual componets off and on by switches
i still may go to a neptune controler but for now timers and switches lol
To start i want to pick a location for this room close to the tank it happens to work out
that the tank will be against the wall my stairs are so i have a catch all junk closet under
the steps.
so step one clean the junk out
the closet was used to hold the sweeper, old school books, pictures, stuff we need to hide fast
had a computer in there that was hooked up to the suround sound in the other room as a music server
. it will still house the cable distrubution panel and computer wireless router and modem
ok on with the pictures
the mess

You said that you wanted to be able to have switches to turn on and off individual components;
We use (and I would recomend) the DJ stips, http://www.guitarcenter.com/American-DJ-PC-100A-8-Switch-ON-OFF-Power-Center-100313636-i1155517.gc (http://www.guitarcenter.com/American-DJ-PC-100A-8-Switch-ON-OFF-Power-Center-100313636-i1155517.gc) they are $30 at the Guitar center down by the dayton mall.

Dang dude! The cleaning alone would have taken me all day! Wish I was that productive on snow days...
-
Well now... This is going to be interesting.

Wow, you get straight to work! Impressive! Excuse my ignorance of all things plumbing, but how did you get a drain installed there with all the other plumbing? Please tell me you have a basement or something. (I'm imagining our under-stairs closest on the foundation...and trying to install a drain there.)

like any other project you make a quick budget in your head and when you standing at the check out watching the number get higher and higher
i remember when you have a budget .... triple it ok $100 mean $300 $1000 means $3000

I don't know if it matters or you care, but when alot of folks run their electricity for tanks they get it all wired up and simply put a plug on the end and plug it into an exisiting socket. Something about making it "nonperminant" which protects you from the insurance company denying a fire claim due to "homeowner installed" fualty wireing if anything ever happened. Just an idea
-
hanks for the tip i still could do that at the elec panel end if i want not really worried . none of the house or comericial building have burt down yet but i get what your saying if they would come look at it it would all be to code tho :laugh:
-
Sounds good. You clearly know more about wiring than me :laugh:
-
I REALLY DONT KNOW
::) looking at you sig cyber
Electrical Engineers do it on impulse, with faster rise times, with more power, and less resistance at higher frequencies, without shorts, until it Hertz
makes me wonder lol ;)

coming right along and yes i did notice the small carnival atmosphere you had going on for thanksgiving looked like fun, you should host a meeting / with the man cave tour after for sure. What do you do by trade by the way?

that's the funniest sterotype. I get that all the time. For the record, just becuase you're an electrical engineer doesn't mean you know anything about how to wire or "the code" :laugh:
I can tell you exactly how the electrons flow and all about the fermi gap levels in LEDs and semiconductors, heck I can even synchonize a generator to the outside mains and pump power back to the grid, but I have no idea how to wire a house lol
-

Wes, I get the same thing with "computers." Most folks are unable to differentiate the many different fields of IT. A couple years ago when I first got into IT as a career, people would ask me all kinds of off the wall things about, and be taken aback when I had no idea what they were talking about. That has changed considerably, but there are still things I am a newb at.
Incidentally, I can do residential wiring like nobody's business. On the flip side, while I get your signature, some of the other electrical things you mentioned left my head hurting. :)

wow nice build looks like ur almost there
-
What a great build thread. Looks like tank maintenance is going to be easy. Nice work!
-
looks like you have been busy, nice job with everything
-
looken good :D
-
Nice look. How does the black vinyl work out on the back? Does it stay put, bubble at all? Where would I order some from?
Thanks,
- rayk
-
Same I would be interested. Maybe you could compile a list of tank dimensions and the size vinyl (plus a little extra for us novice appliers) and make a cost list. I know I would rather use vinyl than paint.
BTW I grew up in Lima. Awesome tank room setup and tank. You have put a ton of work into it and it shows. Keep up the good work!

Nothing is ever overkill. I Like the planning and layout. I will ask the question if those outlets are GFCI protected. WHat is in that framed opening below your Ca reactor?

thanks chrisp but thats a lil far i will get ahold of the local twc about it is the a noticable differance in preformance

ahh i didnt notice the location, as for performance may not see a huge speed difference, but if you have issues with it rebooting on you or dropping signal, then i would suggest a new one... :-ThumbUpsm

Yes I made it out of some 2 part epoxy I carry. The. Frag was on a plug when I got it so I took an empty plug and formed it around it. Let it cure(harden) out of the water the glued the frag to it and have been letting it grow about 2 months when it gets a lil more covered I will pop it out and put a empty plug in its space and repeat with a new disk
-
Any changes since the original setup? Anything you'd do differently?
