Well, needed 2 more cans of Great Stuff, now at $96. Got a $4 budget left.
Here's todays's progress...
The AIO mechanism around noon...
And set in place around 5 (we work quick here, though it is drying).
You can also see that I'm measuring acrylic to create the back wall, going to need to...
Just found magnets.
If I build the back wall from GreatStuff on acrylic, I think I can incorporate them into the back wall build, then can simply magnet the background onto the tank...
So, no photos yet, just the idea.
Going to try to make a 40b all in one with scrap materials, donations, stuff on the cheap, and the stockpile of aquarium crap in the garage.
Goal is a kick arse tank for $100 out of pocket or less.
Here’s what I bought:
40b ($40)
40b stand ($40)
Here’s what...
Live, dry, cured, whatever (no algae crusted please).
Looking for inexpensive for an experimental tank.
20-30 pounds, need to cover the bottom of a 40b.
Can pick up at Jackson meet Sat.
Will have a small cooler on porch tomorrow with 3 sandwich bags in it.
Each bag has softball sized cheato in it with pods, some snails (probably), and some macroalgae (probably).
Take one bag or take all of them.
PLEASE:
I can't respond to post to tell if its been picked up, so communicate with...

Heres a shot I...
Got a Petco by me with the staff being knowledgable.
Bought many a fish and coral there and always top quality.
I've witnessed the employees turn away people looking for a simple systems or 'Nemo tanks'.
They recently began dealing with local coral vendors (aside from having direct Fosters and...
I'm tempted to buy or offer a partial trade.
I'm a sucker for named zoas (there's a reason they're named) and I have a tank full of them.
I know the commons and have big colonies of UC, Sunny D, and such, but I do buy some of the semi-rare polyps often.
Problem is, I don't remember any names...
BUMP 8/28/18
New fuge is growing cheato like triffids.
Have 2-3 softball sized pieces ready for pickup.
Will have to trash if not gone by weekend.
Pods in there and maybe some red and green macros.
Heard about a place in Elizabeth housing Hallucinations and Jubilees.
Was planning on putting a team together.
We can call it Ocean's, no, smaller, err... Tanks 11 (depending on however many want in the 11 may change).
Keep it quiet.
Great design! From the hinge for fitting to the level monitors.
I'm religious on changing my mesh socks I'm still tempted to look into one of these in the future.
This guy should make a mint on this, best of luck to him.
Hope the move is going/has gone as well as can be, but, being a homeowner who has moved I'm aware that's as rare as someone making a multimillion dollar career out of shouting something like 'The Plane! The Pla.... errr, mmmm, scrap that.
