Are those porcelain tile that look like wood, vinyl plank, or real wood floors?  I’m considering the porcelain that looks like wood for a room expansion.

I have the house far enough along that I can finally start working on Lazys Coral House. I will try to put up daily updates as I hope things will move quickly. First up are 4 stands for the tanks. All roughly 8’ each. 3 frag tanks and 1 shared sump/refugium. Stands will be 2x4 framed, skinned in paint grade 1/4” plywood. Top 1/2” plywood with a layer of gray 3/16 pvc board.

Glad to hear I will still have a few customers left after being closed for 4 months

Got all four stands built and skinned. They are ready for install. I will build the doors, paint and trim them out later.

Next step is to position the tanks to determine the final location and clean out the utility room so I have some space to work over the next week.

Painted the stands and positioned them in the room. Also put that baffles in the sump. Tomorrow hope to get the tanks and sump drilled and overflows installed.

If anyone happens to be available Friday 11/30 at noon to help me tear down systems at old house let me know. Thanks
