I really like the offset Idea. are you planning to place a door over it to hide the switches? I will have to run 2 circuits I may run 3 not sure yet in my house I have to get permission from the Landlord first. since they know I plan on buying this house they really don't mind what I do. but still have to have permission.i want to build a electical box with switches and also GFI's

Got the stand in the house tonight and decided to play around with my Marco rock and see if I could come up with something I liked.

I would appreciate your comments, either positive or negative :)

RODI unit is all installed now and working perfectly!

Tank, Sump and skimmer should be done this week! I am hoping to get it all plumbed by the weekend and get er wet!!!!

I am also hoping that my water storage tanks get here this week so I can get all of that plumbed and ready to go.

My QT is ready and I hope to have that Cycling by Thursday night, this way I will be right in line with the DT getting cycled.
