Sorry to those who I promised a pic of my new setup. Always something else to do more urgent . . . clean up floods . . . . stop the tank from emptying itself etc etc

Well its not quite finished, still some trimmings to finish and a little decoration to do, but here it is at the moment.

This is view from kitchen:

I'm very impressed!! :bow:

I was a little confused with the cabinet door colour sceme form the kitchen view, but I'm assuming that they are the the same as your kitchen units? :huh:

The view from the living room is very impressive indeed. :thumbsup:

I will definately like to see more photos.

Yes, very nice. Gives me some ideas with regards to my tank layout. I was planning on most of my live rock being on the sides of the tank, in a sort of "U" shaped formation, which is kind of like what you have done.

I'll post a pic of mine in its empty form to give an idea of what im doing later.

Regards

Yes, the doors match the other side of the kitchen - you know the bit where cooking and washing up etc is done. What a waste of a fishroom! :D

The rock is about 50% live rock and 50% home-made "agrocrete".

Thats easily solved. Get the missus to do it. I gave Jan a few minutes off from knocking up the cement, to have a go at the wall.

thats great Stan, cant believe ive not seen this before.

however, my only criticism is the oak coloured doors in the kitchen and the white cabinet doors - looks hideous! :o

:weep:

Actually you need to see the whole kitchen. Well that's my excuse. The doors are cream, not white and the cream and oak are used throughout the whole kitchen. :D

For the past 12 months I have been SO busy with several projects, so have not been able to get onto UR too often. However, all projects finished and will be officially unemployed in a couple of weeks (hopefully, if the sale of my business goes through). I will then have lots of time to be on here:dance: before I decide what to do in the future.
