Fish's new tank project

Update:

I hadn't called Bow Valley since I ordered the tank - but they phoned me today! And the tank and sump are finished - a week sooner than quoted!!

I can't make it up there until Friday, but once I do, I will post some shots.

First off, I know I am going to get a lot of requests about this, but I do not know where I got the leopard blanket from... I just hung it so that you didn't have to look at my messy basement.

Along with the display tank, I also picked up a sump that I had built to maximize the shape of my stand:

Love it! The leopard print back ground that it. Looks like a trendy new type of tank.

Hahahaha
A little voice told me that I should have grabbed a different blanket of the shelf, but I just didn't listen....

Haha! Well that kind of worked into a bit of a valentines theme, but as I have mentioned, the jungle cat blanket is irrelevant - after all the money I've spent on the system so far... I'm sleeping on the couch anyways...

I would actually like to get black sheet that reaches ceiling to floor = like what they use in photo studios... just until I develop my basement.

No Ryan, Heather does not sew. Why, did you see I had the material and want something made up? That's funny 'cause you are the person that came to mind when I put it up.... whats that mean???

On a more serious note... does anyone know where I can find 45 degree elbows in 1" PVC? Rona used to have the best supply but not it seems like they have as few pieces as home depot. Maybe there isn't much of a demand anymore.
