So...DaCube Jr II is down...Long live DaCube Jr III (2x2 Rimless Starfire Cube) Here are a few shots shortly after I picked it up. Marine Dreamer got to see it before clean up and the bulkhead redues...it has already come a long way:D

I built my stand with the thought of this very size in mind, I really wanted this tank, but the custom price tag was crazy $$$$ I got this one for a song and it is almost exactly what I wanted...well minus the holes in places I didn't want, but I can work around that:p
 
Here is some of the prep work before getting it set up...

This tank has a hole on the bottom from the original owner (he had a closed loop) I redid the bulkhead and capped it...might use it some day but not now.

I'm setting this one up just like the last one with an overflow...

Here is a shot of the bulkhead that will be the overflow. It is a little lower than I wanted, but I can adapt:D

Sweet looking tank Todd! You are welcome I made your dream come true faster than you thought huh;):D. I'll give you a call sometime today maybe I can pick up Da Cube from you after work today if you have time. I did'nt think you was setting this bad bot up right away, but hey I know the feeling.
 
Wow, todd! That starfire sure does make the tank extraordinarily clear!!! In that fts it is almost like it does not even have water in it!!! :lol: That is going to be a sweet tank. Now settle down please!
 
LOL!!! You got the itch bad man :lol: Nice looking tank! I agree...Those rimless tanks are so cool! :)

Ok, so that makes 4 tanks in less than a year Krish...I think that beats your sickness:badgrin:

Yes, the rimless is sweet:cool:
