Sneak peak at new tanks

[rich81090]

Well after 18months in the making here's a pic of my new tanks, the room started life as a garage. I intend to create a full thread of how I did it from start to finish at some point. The tank you can see is 8.25x5x2.5, which runs into a sump below with k1 and a second tank with the return pump which will be used as a growout tank. The same is repeated the other side the wall, this is a older pic, I now have sand in them.

Thanks to aquaman45 and the guys at wharf, after all these years I seem to know them all really well, plus @JimBarry for answering all my questions.

I haven't uploaded many photos, nor tried to tag anyone in a post before so sorry if this doesn't work!

Looks nice, but one picture isn't enough
When will you move the rays in?

Nice! You need to step up to the plate, camera in hand, one photo doesn't hack it! On a serious note, this is a well thought out and good sized tank, I'm sure you'll spend many hours in front of it. Good luck stocking it, and looking forward to the thread.

Hopefully in a month or so, I will move some of the other fish over first, and the Rays last once everything has settle down.

I will do an update once everything is in, it may be a video though as I cant stand far enough away to take very good pictures lol.
