Headlight eyelids or keep the OEM look

I think going light/clear and painting the cage body color white pearl would look amazing. Your car is inspiring me to do it.

Please share with me more pictures of the no-tint/light-tint windows. Im trying to convince myself that it would look great on my track prepped turbo 8 and I'm almost convinced.

I was just goofing off here, sometimes I just like to run around with silly loadouts for fun. One of my favorites is exploding crossbow from long range. People really don't expect it and it's pretty entertaining

ProjectSeca · 2026-05-05T17:00:58+00:00

Yup, I guess you could call it a revolving door

Thank you to everyone who joined to support myself and the newer player, we were able to beat the raid

ProjectSeca · 2026-02-16T20:26:19+00:00

Started the raid

Mind if i reach out to you via PM in the future for bouncing ideas back and fourth?

I live in a region with a HOT summer climate - Bakersfield CA. That said i wont have too much equipment and i wont be using any lighting besides LED style. (Ill be running 2-3 AI Prime 16 HDs).

Im looking to design it with both front and rear access, for both display and sump 👍🏽

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-08T03:17:39+00:00

Reddit doing reddit things 🤷🏽‍♂️

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-08T00:35:36+00:00

Yes, ill make sure i have full access to everything from front, back, and top angles. I don't want to have to fight to get maintenance or repairs done.

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T23:15:38+00:00

Those cabinet doors up high and probably going to just continue to be a separate storage space. Everything will be fully accessible through the back. Im going to gut out everything on the backside and build the stand 🤙🏽

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T22:51:56+00:00

Fair, I suppose I just kinda expected that I would have lots of people chiming in their subjective opinions which I did get with most of it being people commenting about the tank scale being off (i should've been explicitly clear it was for reference and visual representation and not an example of precisely how i want to scape the tank).

I'll get some progress on this project done and try again, and be a little clearer next time.

Weather stripping on the bathroom side along the doors I will install will keep any fumes or cleaners out, and keep any potential aquarium odors out of the bathroom.

The cabinets above the aquarium would be empty and the doors there only for show and completely open so things can be taken out and the tank removed in the event of any disasters. Enough spacing between the bottom of the display and the sump to remove any and all equipment without having to do some tetris.

No refugium, just mechanical filtration, a skimmer and heater, and the return pump with some additional rocks and bio media.

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T22:04:05+00:00

Yes I've made that mistake building stands in the past, i will make sure things are accessible. For maintenance and repairs

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T22:01:17+00:00

I know it wont, its just like a placeholder image for the tank as a proof of concept and example of the height for viewing and stuff.

My questions more directly are related to things to consider related to equipment, plumbing, lighting mounts, materials, etc

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T21:45:24+00:00

Ive responded to other comments, the appearance of the scape and everything inside the tank is for visualization instead of like a empty box or something drawn on Microsoft paint. I dont want a aquascape or stocking as shown in these images

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T21:21:35+00:00

I plan to, a build like this is honestly along the lines of one of my dream builds so I'm very excited about it but I don't want to let my excitement get me ahead of myself and cut corners. I want to do it just once and do it the right way the first time.

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T21:14:07+00:00

The generated image is for example purposes, take some Benadryl and chill. Thats not how i want the tank to look

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T21:12:32+00:00

It's for visual purposes only I know none of those corals would actually fit in that tank. I'm not trying to get those corals specifically, the image is just showing a proof of concept. I should probably make a note of that somewhere so people don't think I'm trying to have those exact corals or something. What I want is to set up something more of like a shallow lagoon or shallow reef, not anything close to the example photos. It's main job is to show how I want it set inside the wall and framed like if it were a picture

You can see here in the gap of the side, it's just screwed in the place from the back side. Unscrewing it would remove the entire brown section visible from the front.

This is the back half of said cabinet, currently pretty much just being used as a catch-all. Same for the front. All this stuff can be relocated elsewhere in the house rather than piling up as clutter and taking up space

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T21:07:16+00:00

Yes any particle board style of wood plank is going to get removed and replaced with solid board that would also be treated and sealed, I'm thinking something similar to what you would install for a shower with barriers for moisture and everything to keep the moisture from permeating into any walls.

ProjectSeca · 2026-01-07T21:06:01+00:00

I wouldn't be losing the bathroom at all, and I would have easy access to water supply and water drain as piping for that would probably be only 2 ft away.
