This has been in the works for quite some time so I thought I would share here.   Lots and lots of concrete, tons of wood, metal, a whole lot of power, diggin holes, 1000's of feet of wiring.  Mix of natural and artificial light.  Took about 6 months to get all the permits, but now the project is rolling along.  I'll get some pics up soon.....

Ok, all I really want is my automatic frozen food feeder...... :rolleyes:

 

 

This makes me feel very inadequate.....I think my tank is too small and I will get teased because of it.

 

 

Sooooo how is that PAR down at 15' depth?

 

 

This will be diveable with discount passed for WAMAS members to SCUBA.- Correct?

It is starting to look a lot like a foundation for a building with the door to the office on the right front corner and the rolling steel door on the left. Don't see the 15' deep hole we create when we build a pool, let alone the plumbing.......ummmmm. :mellow: I would think you would want to bury at least half of the tank in the ground just for energy saving reasons. Never got a good look at it on my phone all weekend, now my computer screen tells a different story.

 

I think we are part of a big charade.

If a building, the foundation is coming up too high. Because of cost, the foundation only comes up a bit above grade (though the ride side looks about right)...unless they plan on backfilling, which I doubt. :) I'm still thinking coral farm....The opening in the foundation will be filled in later after heavy machinery is allowed the access the inside....Just a thought.
