Well my tank arrived tonight and it is HUGE. It's one thing to measure and plan, but when the tank actually showed up I just could not believe how big it was.
Albert and the gang from Golds delivered it and did a great job. Man that thing weighed a TON.
Ill post pics later as I cannot find my Wide angle lens for my camera.
There were a couple of things Albert metioned that I wanted to clear up and thought it would be good to have them in the forum.
Since the tank is frameless, we put it on some plywood and Albert suggested I get some foam to put under it. I got a 1/4 foam camping pad from Wal Mart since Home Depot only carries hard styrofoam it seems.
Does this look ok?
Albert also suggested that I cut out a portion of the center of the foam and leave it open. I am not sure why I need to do this and perhaps Albert can explain as it was a bit crazy while he was here. Would just leaving the whole sheet of foam under the tank cause problems?
Anyway, it's in a looks great. I have to wait a week for it to cure and then put fresh water in it for a week to leak test. That is ok as I have at least that much work to do with the Sump, rockwork tests and plumbing.
Ill post pics tomorrow.
