JonBoy Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 So i got Dougs 60 gal cube and decided i want to try a build thread. Been working on plumbing most of today and came up one stupid fitting short! (flame) So it might have to wait until Monday to fire up the system. I tried attaching some photos but something isnt cooperating so ill try again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
