I think I officially have to have water in a tank to be officially back. Right now I have to commit before my wife changes her mind. It's good to be back, and hopefully I'll be in the market for livestock before next winter!

I would have taken the Mini (provided it wasn't a Clubman), and found a way to make a tank work too. I love Minis!

Seeing that I already have a Mini and that another mini takes up less room to store than a fish tank, I opted to go with the fish tank. I'm still working on getting permission for another Mini though.

its going to be a nice setup! keep the pics coming!

Here is a bit of a conceptual drawing as to what the picture frame side of the tank will look like. The top panel of the picture frame will be hinged so that I can feed/aquascape/access from this side.




Here is what the tank will look like from top view. I'm not sure what to do with the stand/canopy yet. Most likely the stand will come 8" past the tank on both sides to cover the overflow box and also cover plumbing so that I can run plumbing up the tank opposite side of the overflow. So it will now become a 2 side viewable tank. My wife thought that having the stand semetrical on both sides would look better. This gives me more options anyway.
