Anytime, I dont think I have room for all your tanks but I can make room :) My family lives in phoenix so maybe ill come visit and see your tanks you got some nice ones, Ya my wife thought she was getting a family room, I am getting a man cave, she is already thinking of a sign for the door, LOL When its all up and running anyone can come visit, I have spare rooms so you can come over and stay, I will be going out of town in a couple months so lets plan it so you can fish sit for me, I will make sure the freezer and fridge are well stocked

Can I move in? Your basement will look amazing!

THANKS Yep this is the tank, ya I knew it was going to be hard finding one real local so I said anywhere within about 500 miles will work and started looking everywhere. This is what I found. Ya keep looking back and should be getting things going fast but as always it takes time for everything.

This weekend I started buffing the tank using all the novus products, I am only on the heavy scratch stuff right now, So far so well, I found some spots that wont come out with that so I am going to use some 1000grit wet sand paper to get those down a little better, also I dont know how or why really but I found some crazing on the tank that I know was not there before. It is not deep at all so I have started to sand that down and will take it all out. From what I read if its not too deep its best to sand it out just like you would a scratch. I did one little spot last night with good results, Looked at it before work this morning and all looked the same. I am not sure if I bumped it with the power buffer and that happened or what really, I just know I was starting to think my cheap tank was about to get real expensive, I would say its only 1/16th of an inch deep so really nothing bad at all. its about 2 inches from the egde so where the buffer could have bumped it but it seems odd for that, I will be not going near the edges at all anymore, I will do those areas by hand, we did all the sudden get a huge spike in the weather yesterday as it went from about 80 to 35 with snow :) . Over all at this point I am not too worried but I am also thinkinhg I need to get this thing into the basement sooner than later, but with so much going on right now with family and everything thats hard to do, I might think of heating it with a little heater and covering it if I see something bad in the weather again, but I dont think I will need to.
