ghosts........ooooooooooooooooooooooo :nilly: :nilly: :nilly: :nilly:


Lol, funny you should say that as my girlfriend thinks so too... i remember when we met she used to go on about the ghosts in the house... and how in every photo we take theres "orbs" in them....

I on the other hand think that its dust :P
 
looking dank...what are you building it out of, ur tank
 
Your 55 is a nice tank post some pix of that and an update on the build.:popcorn:
 
It could just be crappy camera, or the lens itself.

Anyway, looking forward to that monster setup.
 
Hi Everyone...
sorry that we have not posted in a while... basically we have been doing small bits and pieces and none of it looks very impressive...
Next weekend is the big one as we will be building the wooden framework around the walls to hold the plasterboaqrd and insulation...

Heres whats happened in the last 2 weeks:

The fish have gotten grumpier:

On friday we got the floor almost completed... basically all it needs now is to be ground smooth and flat.... as the concrete kinda expands when it sets making it lumpy:

On satyerday I am going to have a mate over to help put the plastic sheeting up over the walls, then build the wooden frame to take the plasterboard.
Have to wire in all the plug sockets and the light fittings aswell.

promise to take pics next weekend... this is taking a lot longer than i expected.. but I will reach my goal eventually... the important thing is that all the building and painting is finished and perfect before i have fish in the room as once the tank is in there i cant go round making dust and fumes.
 
Can't believe I hadn't seen this thread before!
Exciting project - lookin forward to more updates....
