1200g Woody Horseshoe Reef

[ricanboy57]

That sounds like a lot of support. Like you said, with it being a wood tank that stuff has to be done to a tee. I'm too much of a wuss to try something like that.

ive heard alot about stock tanks giving away at the seams. and stock tanks are only warrenteed if you have them on their stands too. 60 hexs, 180s giving away at the bottom center long panel, 150 cracked the front pane on a fw, ect...

I don't want to even think of such possibilities:eek2: :eek2:

Can't wait to see this progress even further, just noticed last night waynesworld that you're in TN too.

Looks like it's going to be a great build, looking forward to some new updates and pics.

I love that horseshoe design...That's going to look incredible!

I will be following this one...I'm in the market for a new house and your design has given me some ideas for what I'd like to put in the new place.

Looking forward to more updates and pics...

Thanks, I'm actually in ETN. I have been lurking in both local forums though.

Glass is going in as I type. One piece in and two to go. Pics later.

[VikeBron]

Two down and 1 to go.
Wish us luck. There are liquid refreshments being consumed

Steve, when you're done putting in the last pane and feel like takin' a break give me a call.

 

[VikeBron]

All starfire glass is in:thumbsup: Doing some spot sealing and then to the 1st coat of sealer. That may have to wait til morn as we may hit the Nashville scene tonight. Anyone want to meet for a cold one?

 

[NeveSSL]

Well, if his extra room ends up underwater, you'll only have yourselves to blame.

Pictures are a must after you get all the glass in!

[NeveSSL]

When are you guys planning on putting water in?

Brandon

 

[waynesworld]

Well we will have to wait as I was in the garage the two brothers seemed to make a 10 foot piece of glass into a 6 foot piece. Dang I wish Glass Cages was open 24 hours. oh well we will prob get it monday.
