mmmm after today I am not keen to do anything! I started at 8.30 finished 7 minutes ago! didnt even get the water back in the tanks as planned dam! too many issues.

one thing I was amazed with my LFS made a trolley that jacks 3m high!!!! it was so easy getting tanks on the stands even my sw thats sits 2.2m high we just jacked it right up there lol. this little trolley managed my whole tank 600 KG plus!! pretty beast thing if u ask me!

I will up load some pictures tomorrow if I wake up. My thighs feel like they are about to pop open.

considering selling the 4ft system to get 2-4 more bigger tanks seeing as in tanks with good width I can stock most fish together the 4x2x2s are getting to me.

only issue where would I put QT tanks and a grow out system. hmmm!

Ideas anyone?

Quick Mini Update testing the images out on the other forum they go sideways :|

8x4x3 was a pain to move but its now and looks lovely some what needs a new paint coat lol.

My wens night hard work making a return line for the 4fts. so many hose clamps and getting the flow even in each return was a pita.

salt water setups. need to build a bench over the first sump

8x18x18 and 8x20x20 with a 7x18 sump coral system

5x3x2.3 and 6x2x2 Pred system.

Sideways here too >_<!

LOL rotate those pics

I did in photo bucket they are straight they where taken straight :| just when I post them on sites they go weird I will try uploading them too this sever and see what happens lol



Noodle return line 30 hose clamps xD my lhs was out of pvc Ts and elbows



8FT coral system with sump under it. 8x18x18 on top 8x20x20 below 7x18x18 sump under and 6x20x20 sump infront. plan is to build a bench-sofa thingo over this to hide the sump.



6x2x2 on bot 5x3x2.something on top. the 5ft just fitted. both these tanks will be sw preds =P yes I have become multi addicted snakes- sw - freshwater.



8x4x3 monster tank toughened glass!! its actually on a 2 tier stand so in theory I could put a 8x4 above it and it would hold but tank maintenance would be hard thinking of putting the snakes above to save space.

P.S ..!.. you photobucket!

on a bad note my male dovii has caught a fungal infection from his cut when he broke the tank. treating with pimafix but he has also caught swimming bladder issues. hoping he pulls threw! he has been great with the other fish i expected I would have to move them but when he was not sick he was fine not chasing anyone else they flared at him.

 

[Darsie]

Damn thats some good size tanks there. cant wait to see them running. whats going in the 8x4x3?

good luck with the dovii. you dont see enough of them at that size

 

[RAN THE MAN9]

awesome fish room!!

 

[Squirtle919]

Thanks guys. The dovii looks a bit better but his fungus is falling off and the wound is open under? first time I have had to fight with a fish normally they dont get sick or instant deaths =( is this normal? his swimming straight then he tilts again though

8x4x3 going to be mainly monsters or a salt water shark tank with some rays its just big enough lol. lots of reading if I go down that path though.

If monsters just your avg rtc-tsn-big cichlids-arows etc I am a bit bored of that though =P RTC are nice so are tsn but they eat like pigs and dont swim very much. compared to sw fish who would race around that track like its a race course!

 

[Darsie]

Sorry mate cant help you there. not my strong point. have been pretty lucky so far (touch wood) and havent had anything to serious, just ich and what not. so i havent bothered to study up on haha. hows he looking now?

shark and rays would be sweet
