Bolster, you should share that photo over in the photo forum here, there is a thread asking for custom built ins and such there.
7faces, I agree about asking a mod to move this to the DIY forum, you're more likely to have it not got lost there.

wow Bolster...very nice indeed!
mine is a much smaller bar...only for 2 stools, and it is in the corner of my theatre room, so i wont have the space to go for an all out theme like that, but man i wish i did!... that looks like a nice relaxing spot for a cold one!
how about some pics behind the scenes? im assuming you have a wet room behind the display?

What are your thoughts on air stone driven skimmers?
im looking at building 4 -4inch dia. 4ft. tall pvc skimmers run in series with a slower pump volume of around 225gph. recomended airstones is 4 each, so thats 16 airstones. What kind of air pump would supply those? and how much volume of air would i need?

Well, the glass is in, and cured.
I filled the tank today, and so far (4 hours) all is well..
i dont know if ive ever done anything as stressfull as filling this thing, just waiting for it to explode!..lol
its amazing the sounds you hear when looking for a leak!.. doesnt help that its raining outside and i keep hearing ...drip....drip...drip
how long should i leave this filled before deciding its watertight so i can drain it,paint the outside, run my plumbing, and build weir boxes?...
