Buying a new tank today!

Thanks guys.. I'll feel better about it when I get the new tank going and spread this out, kinda a house of cards at the moment. But stuff has opened up today, so that's cool.

 

Looks great Matt. Looks like you replaced your birds nest...Sweet.

How you doin Matt? Get the 20 up and running yet? Seems like I'll be starting up a 40 breeder out here in chicago. glass tanks are dirt cheap out here and no earthquake issues. let's see some pics!

I'll document my 40 when i get around to buying everything.

Funny you ask.. life is the usual juggle act, but I was literally just gluing the baffle on the sump, so I am pretty darn close now! 8)

Edmund I didn't realize that was you!

Hey everyone, I bought this tank from Edmund.. [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

I just cut off the pre-filter box, with an Eheim 1250 (300+) gph pump, I think I can get away with a 6"x4" prefilter box instead of this 9"x4", what do you think?

Thanks for joining!

 

Oh that's what you use red bricks for!

Hehhe.. ;D
Best 40 cents I've spent in a while.

 

Well today is the day!
I've cleared all the other hurdles.. shortened the length of the overflow from 9 to 6 inches... glued the durso together.. and finished the baffle.

So today I am running out to get more sand and NSW, and I am going to do the transfer.

Hope there aren't any big surprises or this will be a long day! Wish me luck. ;D

 

Have a nice swim, eh Matt?
