Well since getting everything picked up last week I have focused on the stand which whoever built this I guess never used a square. I've got it square up as best I could without out completely tearing it apart, once I put the plywood on the back and top it should be good to go. After that I'll paint it then focus on the calcium deposits that are on the top 4 inches of the Tank.

Very nice. A little tip for the tank, if you get some furniture dollies and sit it on them, you can move it around by yourself. That's how I moved mine out to my driveway to run water on it while I drilled it.
 
Yeah I'm going to put my growouts in it first. Which is a 15" tire track eel, 13" polypterus endlicheri, 12" sun catfish and a 10" malabaricus hoplias. Will add some other stock at a later date once these are in and settled.
 
Ahh, I do remember you mentioning that on one of your threads.

I am going to be putting two fire eels in mine. They will be the only inhabitants for a while. Then, I am hoping to add between 8-12 discus. I am still trying to decide if I want to try to grow them out myself or if I want to pony up for some adult 5"+ discus. We'll see. Lol

Yeah discus that size cost.

Yeah, it seems that I can get 2-2.5"discus for anywhere between $12.50 to $25 each but then have to grow them out myself. Or, I can go for something 5"+ for anywhere between $100 to $200 and not have to grow them out. It's such a dilemma. Lol
