4300 Gallon Plywood Build (3600+ Take 2)

where does it ship out of?

California, but since it ships ground the weather on every part of the route from there to here via ground has to match up and be warm enough.

ghinksmon, I haven't underestimated the moisture, but only the white rafters are exposed, the rest is closed in with wood paneling type wainscot.

OK, I should have had more faith that you covered that.

Real time stinks for us with a short attention span! Why can't a build be wrapped up in a 30min HGTV special?

Keep up the great work and feeding us pictures. Many thanks for allowing us to share in this remotely.

Ok, it costs whatever that cost is for the privilege of viewing the tank in person. I'll give you a 10% discount though.

We haven't moved the wires out of the rafters yet, but the switches are working and we have GFCI for the outlet that is above the front of the tank. Other than moving the wires, have to see which circuit(s) the rest of the room is on and run another section of wire to tie into where an outside was supposed to go, but wasn't ever hooked up.

I would love to see the section of the building code that specifically addresses the construction requirements for a 4300 gallon aquarium in a residential structure. Better yet, i want the job of the guy paid to sit around all day and ask "what things should we make code about next?"

Keep it up pete, i can't wait to see the outcome
