Thoughts on tank upgrade

[aquaph8]

Im going from 125 gallons to 225 gallons. If I do a one day change over do you think I will be alright. Part of me says to take it slow but its kinda hard when the lighting is moving with everything else. I know some of you have been through this. Thoughts?

[aquaph8]

Yep, fun stuff

If it was me I would do it all at once, I have done it several times and have loss nothing. I could give you my methods and help when the time comes, just give me a call when the time comes.

^ ditto plan a day so youll have enough time to do it all at once

Im a chicken. Thanks Gary I will fill the fridge with Beer when the time comes. Wait till you see me try to get a 36" stand in the house.

i can be an extra set of hands when you plan it. lmk

 

[aquaph8]

Thanks Victor. Im sure I will need all the hands I can get. I imagine it will take about 3 months to get it though.

I was wrong, 3 weeks. Guess I better start welding.

Brett - do not hold your breath, I am telling you both times I ordered a tank through lee Mar it took them months. I hope it comes faster for you though as I know I was like a little kid on Christmas waiting for mine.

 

[aquaph8]

I wont. Im not in too big of a hurry though. I still have to build the stand, coat it and face it with wood. Its gonna be a lot of work. As far as being like a kid on Christmas, well Yeah. Maybe a PVC stand would be faster. LOL
