290G Peninsula Tank

Hi Mark, thanks for the tour. The house is going to be fantastic. When I got home my wife wanted to know about the house. The patios, views, breakfast bar, amazing ensuite, theater room etc... and all I could talk about was the huge fish room lined with plywood, the natural gas generator that will run the tank durning a power failure and how you will even have a sink hidden in a cabinet next to the display tank. All she could do was shake her head.

Very impressive and well thought out!

Please keep including the "stuff for guys". Many of us have dreamed about building a house for their fish tanks. The pretty corals will grow for years and years but you will only build once. So please keep the updates coming!

I wonder what the record is for number of pages in a thread before there is actually a tank in the house???....

I thought Brett might have the record for slowest build but I'm coming on strong! (not the current 404 of course but his last tank.)

Don't worry Kevin, I will keep posting the build...its the only way I can cope with the anticipation of actually getting things going for real.

You may be right...all I know is that I'm starting to be a player in that race...and I'm not sure I like it.

You're building a house at the same time that doesn't count lol. Even tho Tony hates that title he's not going to just give it up... after all it is a title =)

Hey Mark,

Good to finally meet you, the future title holder of "The Slowest Tank Build Thread". Haha J/K!

You're building a house AROUND your tank! That's kinda what I'm aspiring to do whenever we get sick of Downtown living and decide to get a house.

I hope the lights work out for the interim.
