They can grow upright. Don't worry.

No offence to all TOTM winners, but this guys sump can win TOTM let alone his tank.

When I saw your tank I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Then I saw that heineken fridge and just about lost my $hit. That is awesome!!

Chingchai,

Just a short message to join the many other admirers. Great job! Hopefully one day I'll get a chance to start a similar build, even if it's a little smaller.

Peter. Thanks.
So '63 port is one of the best wine. Right?
Sorry I just love drinking wine but really not the wine connoisseur.

Ching,
The vintage of the century for port was 63. Depending on how well it was stored, at its best it will be slightly beyond its peak. BUT in its present state it will still be better than the next best vintage year. The 63 is truly unique and is as good as it gets which is a great equal measure of your success with this hobby and what you have achieved!!! In fact it could be argued that since you haven't reached your prime yet, that your achievement is even greater.

I'm sure our community would agree that.........

Peter

ps. I would be interested in any comments you might have on anything you would have done differently while the experience is fresh. I say this because I am copying many of the principles and processes that you have demonstrated in your build and I would appreciate any adjustments that you would now recommend.
