Paint job is done.. looks much better now..

Couldn't source a net big enough.. so made a frame from a 8mm rod at our construction site..

Now that the painting is done, when does it get filled?

Any plans for a plants in the sump area?

Been sometime since the paint work was done.. I wasn't too happy or sure about coating the inner walls with white cement.. some areas got too powdery.. so got the tile guys to fix the rest of the white tile in the front slope cos that area w(c)ould get the most water splashing aroud.. it looks nice..

so now.. just decided to tile it right up to top.. guess i'll have to wait until sunday to get this tiling business done.. managed to make a net though.. the frame i'd posted a pic earlier..bent a bar from one of our construction sites.. the mosquito net was 3$ and the tailor charged me like 2$.. looks like it will serve the purpose..

Hey Mateo.. i was so impatient that i decided to fill it up today.. but then my dad said give it some time and lets tile up the rest of the area and not worry.. so i'm just gonna give it some time.. looks like i will be moving my fish only in the 1st week of june..but hopefully next week i will be testing with other fish.. about plants.. i want to check the amount of current the motors generate in the sump.. if it is too strong then i might have to think about floating plants or even if planted wondering if the can survive the constant current..
