Poor Zanclus, the next week is going to be a loooooooong week! :lol:

 

[zanclus]

I will be alright Carrie, I can look at my fish and corals all cramped in a 40.

Anticipation kills me! I'm like a kid waiting for x-mas.

Nice work by the way.

Wow dude. Way to go! I guess you'll be happy to see me cart your old set-up away. Your garbage is my upgrade. But seriously, great job and continued success with your new system. See you Sunday.

 

[zanclus]

Thanks Jerry , my garbage er your upgrade is empty now lol I just figure if I am to do this I might as well do it better than before. i discovered a few things in the past few years and well you know the old saying "If I could do this over again i'd do it this way" well i guess I am lol. But i have to thank my wife for wanting wood floors.

 

[zanclus]

Well the old 125 is gone.... I have an empty space in my living room and an lonely feeling inside .... Thanks Jerry

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

buck up- that feeling won't last long!

As I had the opportunity to see John's handiwork in person today when I picked up his 125, I was impressed to say the least with his handiwork on the new stand and canopy. The fellow that drove me up with his truck to help me pick up Johns tank, who is quite the craftsman in his own right was duly impressed with John's work. So kudos to you John! Can't wait to see the finished product. My question is, how did a guy from Staten Island learn all that stuff. I guess us Bronx guys lost out on that somewhere along the line. Keep the pictures coming as the progress unfolds.

 

[zanclus]

Well I moved thae stand to where it is going to be I do need to fix the wall though.... Sump fits like a glove with a little room to spare. Tank will arrive on Sat. and the fun begins...

I plan on building a matching narrow cabinet on the right to house my Cal. reactor and suppllies.

Very nice job. I can't wait to see the new set up. What happened to all your critters in your old tank??
