How did you manage that in a week & half i ask you..? Primed & Fully functioning doors to boot! wicked effort DK
I got the stand done in an all day Saturday effort which kinda ran through to 5am on Sunday morning - not that I would confess to having been obsessed with getting it done! It wasn't actually too bad using a hobby mitre saw rig to get the wood cut though gluing it all together. Lets just say, I did have a few glasses of scotch in the process and I am uncertain if this helped or hindered the project - snapping tiny bits of wood during cutting etc! If I was to include all the hours wasted on cunning overflow designs which didn't work I would probably make myself sick!

I was dissapointed not to get any livestock in there - Mike is probably gonna be first on that! Grats Mike. As I want to have a "running" eco system for more than 30 mins to take a photo I will have to wait until we start round 2 to make some modifications and solve my heating issues. Some of my fellow SCMAS'ers did suggest hooking my micro up to my main tank to control temperature and water quality - of course, that would be cheating and not a true micro (I was tempted though, trust me, I was tempted!).

Still waiting for those pics Veriann, or are you going to admit defeat ? I know you want to, I can hear you crying into your Aussie watered beer already, wondering how you can possibly cope with Mike and my creations. Defeat for you perfectly acceptable, you can just write it off as being an Aussie and everyone will understand!

Evil Regards,
