Hi all. I decided it was time to up grade from my current rant to a much larger tank. I figured I had huge fresh water ranks growing up it can't be to bad. Well I was wrong I will be the first to say planing is very much needed. I bought my tank thinking I could just buy a stand that would meet my needs for a decent price. That was not going to happen so I built my own. Next problem is I had orders from the wife that this tank would not be as loud as my last two tanks. Which that ment fish room and my only option there was the garage. So I got under way and built the stand and plumbed out to the garage. Then the real fun started I had leaks after leaks. Luckely I learn from on here unions are your best friend and I had lots of them in the system. Well long story short I got the tank temp up and running my son got really sick so tank funds went to his surgery an well its been a slow process from this point forward. Questions or comments welcome. I'll put more up as I go.
