I'm having big fun now...390 display +

[mflamb]

Well, it's just over 2 years since I started this thread and this is the end. The 390 tank, stand, skimmer, OM-4 ways, and a few pumps that won't be reused on my 300, are gone. The rock, fish, and corals are all doing well in the Rubbermaid 300 gallon stock tank. My new tank, 72x36x27, is being made, and the wall that it will go in will be built over the next couple of weeks.
So for those that have tagged along for this "Big Fun", and offered helpful suggestions along the way, I say thanks, and feel free to jump into the 300 "Big Fun" build. That thread will start by the end of the month.

Even your 300g tide pool is impressive. Looking forward to your new build. Thanks for your advice and the equipment.

This system was very sweet. You did a wonderful job with it. I can't wait to see the new one. I love the Rubbermaid set up. Look downs are very cool.
Hope your back gets better for you also.

Thanks! The back probably won't get better, but it's very bearable if I don't put myself in position to hurt myself. I did a little tile work where the 390 was, and will, with the help of friends, be putting up a wall in the gameroom this weekend. The 300 will be in that wall. I'm taking pics and will start the 300 thread soon, or I may just be lazy and just keep posting on this thread.

I know what you mean . Dr. it hurts when I do this..... then don't do that. :lol:

Either way, new thread or this thread, be sure to keep us all posted. Because no matter what you do, I'm sure it will be worth sharing. Glad to hear you got some friends to help you when you need it. We got a lot of good people here in our area as well.

Jeff, at JR Fabrications is building the steel stand this week. I won't be using a canopy frame on this one.

Got it, thinking about changing things around on my 90. May go for a steel frame and make some mods. If you have a contact number for JR, pls PM it. Thanks!
