Impending new project

One of my dad's clients is moving to a new office and wants to set up a large salt water reef tank. There is a possibility that I will be selected to set it up and maintain it. I'm hoping it's not too much for me to handle, and I am excited ;D.

 

Very cool! I had a freind who started a maintenance company and I did alot of work for/with him at compaines and loved setting up tanks.

It was a learning experience though, thank god it wasn't my money!

 

The hard thing, I imagine would be not letting the client bully you. You are going to have to cycle a large tank in this persons office, and I'm sure he/she will not want an "Under Construction" look in this new place!
Established companies would have cured rock ready to go, and would be able to make a decent display within a day or two. You are going to have to let this person know how long it is going to take "from the ground up",and stick to that schedule.
That having been said, GO FOR IT!
;D

 

I actually know that guy, and I am sure there will be no bullying to be had! He's really a laid back guy.

 

how big of a tank does he want?

 

I haven't had a chance to talk to him yet - my dad is who told me about it.

 

Well, that's good! But make sure he understands that it ain't gonna be pretty for at least six weeks!

People really don't 'get' certain things.
