Re: A Haiku for my new Project
 I haven't quite finished this project yet. The week came and went, and now it's another weekend, which means I have time to finish it. I plan to get it finished today, and will post pics when I do.

Re: A Haiku for my new Project
Here is the update. Not 100% finished (I am temporarily trying to keep the "frame" on with duct tape; it's not working. NDB suggests C-clamps. Then it will be finished).
The DSB is around 8 or 9 inches deep. I recycled the sand from my old fuge and added a lot more. The fuge itself is 35 gallons. I have chaeto and (TOO MUCH) caulerpa in it. And a lonely asterina star I pulled out of my display. This is the only asterina I've seen, and it was cute and cuddly, so I spared it the porcelain waterslide. The lights are track lights with plant bulbs. The track, plus cord, plus two fixtures were on sale and I got the whole setup for less than $10. From Lowe's, of course  .The water is pumped from my sump using a MaxiJet, and then exits the fuge via gravity through the PVC NDB put in the side. And, I have pics. I know. What a rarity.

Re: A Haiku for my new Project
looks good but i think the side of the tank needs to have an hour of scraping done.

Re: A Haiku for my new Project
Yeah I don't even bother with the sides. Scraping the front is tough enough.
