120 g new tank room divider

banditpowdercoat · #1 03-06-2010, 03:15 AM

Does the tank come with inhabitants, or is it empty? If empty, could set it up dry off to the side, and get all the stuff done, then when it's all ready, move over and do the big swap. That's basically what I did with the 150g. Was about 3 months, tough not getting fish in right away, but well worth it in the long run.

Is it a Eurobraced tank? Or, does it come with an overflow allready?

The tank is empty. You ask all the "important guy stuff"

remember it is me you are talking to.

The tank has an overflow and that is about all I know.

It will be an adventure.

Yes, I will freely admit it I am in over my head.

But nothing ventured nothing gained, right!

You may be getting PM'D
to death.

Leah, you know you can PM me too if I can help at all. Given that multiple tanks is kinda your thing

...I'd be surprised if you didn't just set that 72 back up again.

Have you taken any of the other tanks down since I last visited you?

Leah while I am dropping the tank off I maybe able to setup a temp sump so get a pump just in case. and have a bunch of water ready to put in before hand once it is started there is no turning back We will have to conect the plumbing anyways so you don't have water on your floor. I'll find out what size plumbing it has again memory is going with not working and all. So here it is I am leaving in the am after I get up some time will call once I get to Kelowna. Mark did say all plumbing is hidden so things are looking up a bit on this one. I have to check that corner overflow how many holes are drilled 2 or 3 I hope 3 then you have a drain and a emergincy drain and a return. I'll also check on ball velves for you, see if there is any in the plumbing package, there is alot in the bag. I want to go by there anyways and see what else was in the bags that were still floating when I was there.

Wow,

Thanks you guy's and Carmen so much. You are all so amazing and encouraging with all your support. I may stand a chance at pulling it off with your guy's and Carmen's help. Carmen, if your rings constantly... it is me

....going to go garbage can shopping today

...Woo Hoo! Fun stuff.

I am getting excited now.

I have sorta gotten over the initial shock of what have I gotten myself into...but sure it is temporary once I see the tank.

Learning why this is a guy's thing mostly.

Msseepman

He he! No Mark they are all still running.

But I will be selling my 72 soon.

Hey, Mark next Saturday would be a great day to come visit me.

... I have stuff for you still.

Bill, maybe let me know then WHAT all I will need, as I have the water thing under control

but as for anything else well kinda stuck on that part. I can try and sort it all out before you get here.

Anyone want to BRAVE a visit over the weekend.

Should be pretty fish'y around here...if nothing else it should be entertaining to watch.

I can have beer, wine what ever it takes.

Lots of take out... I imagine.

I even have lots of extra beds if need be.
