Nice and neat and tidy and you can see that money has been spent in the right places. Well done and be sure to keep us updated with the progress.

Looks like its going to be a splenid reef there Ryan.


Out of curiosity, where did the swimming pool/spa nozzels in the back pane come from and how much.

Si

They are eyeball inlets and TMC stock them so most retailers should be able to get them for you for around £12 each. They require 45mm holes and the connection is 1".

Hi

The cabinet was hand made by a kitchen maker and is really well made to match the rest of the kitchen. The blue background is car paint sprayed on the back panel but you could use vinyl of the type that sign writters use on windows/vans etc. I have put another box of rock in but I will wait until the other box goes in before I post another pic!
