male passed away =( he went threw too much sh*t, should have waited to get him . First he broke the tank and was on the floor for a good 5-8 hours, then he went into a tank which had to be moved so he got moved again, then 1 week later had to move him again. He knocked a dirftwood log which feel on top of him causing cuts which lead to a fungal infection then he got swim bladder. sigh poor guy. Made me by this 8x4x3 and didnt even stay around to enjoy it =(

Lesson learned dont rush with big fish.

well I throught I did it but the bracing gave out today, lasted 24 hours was pretty happy as it was the last tank for my fish room and I could start adding fish all over but... she popped 3500L all over my floor. I was trying to patch it with under water silicone as my first bran wave was I just had a little hole but the side brace actually got ripped off and this caused the hole 8x3 sheet of glass to tear off.

Hope the video works youtube is playing up. (yes in the havoc of it all I managed to get my phone and record it why trying to hold the glass, till I releaised it was hitting a power board and I was standing in a puddle of water lol)
