Here's the tank part way through reassembly.
Finally put back together. The problem I have now is that it is too front heavy with the new batteries and gets a bit bouncy because of it. So, I'll be moving the batteries closer to the center shortly.

New Router, New Batteries
I still don't know what caused the WRTSL54GS to die, but with only a few weeks until the end of the semester I had to continue on. I broke out the spare WRTSL54GS and installed it on the tank over the weekend. There were a number of modifications made this time to the assembly. First, the router was installed on thicker grommets to lift it further from the plexiglass base. Second, I bought two 12 volt lead sealed batteries to replace the 7.2 volt packs I had before. Last, and most unexpectedly, I broke the plexiglass base while drilling out the holes to hold the larger batteries. **sigh** So off I ran to Home Depot to by another sheet of plexiglass to mount everything to.
