Heh. Sorry. Kind of more jealous of your dog than the tank. Boxers are the ****!

Very nice tank though the tank would be better suited for rays and certain PBass if the height and width measurements were swapped.

Ya i know. But can't always have every thing how we might want it. I don't have that much money at all. And I really wanted a 3 foot tall tank the more and more I see them. my bass stay near the top allot. To me would just be better at 30+" front to back, But having one built or building a tank this size would cost me way way more than what I paid. It will work just fine for what I want and need. My largest bass is 11 inches and picky eating so probably won't grow too fast and even at 18-20 inches he will still have allot of room.

Well here is all the other stuff

Looking over the tank more today I used a little of the novus 3 that I got with the tank and decided that I will be getting 8oz bottles of the stuff so I can go over the tank really well, I also plan on getting a buffer because no way am I going to do all that by hand. I can do it all in a day with some power tools

Plan is to make the stand as tall to fit as much as possible into it, right now plan to make it out of wood but I could do metal also. Not really sure at this point, I have the skills to do either. Tank over all will end up about 5000 pounds at the most.

I have heard these heater controllers are not the best?? Anyone?? at this point I plan to just use it and try it out but if I know now what to get next is always good.

Just to test the pump I filled up the sink and turned it on, almost had water all over the floor LOL. thing really pushes around allot of water. Next I am thinking of testing the heater
