![]() This is embarrassing.
Early 2006 I built a peninsula upstairs. Late 2006 I began building a 400 gallon downstairs and moved the ~70 gallon (which never looked that great to begin with) down as well so I could reno the main floor. I haven't had anything living in a tank since late 2006. The 400 was cut apart and sold (I filled it once to leak test) and the wall torn down to sell the house. Check out that sweet ro/di feed to my sump! ![]() ![]() Last edited by lastlight; 11-20-2009 at 01:07 AM. |
