Fellow MFKer Needs Help-Arapaimaman needs help finishing 15000 gal tank Central FL

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Day 2...

Ok so day 2 did not go as smoothly as planned, but progress was still made. About 1/2 of the plumbing of the tank itself is finished. No work was done on the filter or pump today. I'm pretty sure the tank won today, so I'd say the score is Tank 1, MFKers 0. (if urban meyer was coaching us today, you'd be stuck listening to him cry on espn for at least a week, but by the grace of god we won't have to listen to him and tebow cry until jan 9)

So in no particular order, here are some pics. I'll post more later.

this is unbelievably awesome! just two things i'd like to say...

1) i didn't read every post, so i might have missed this. can or will you apply for any special permits to keep fish like rays that aren't allowed in FL?

2) you should totally consider inaugurating your tank by having ash swim in it dressed like a mermaid!!! :headbang2:headbang2:headbang2
 
I cant wait to see this monster finished, again good luck and great job!
 
That's alot of intricate plumbing...Not as easy as straight runs for sure...those 45degree "crosses" can be a bear for sure...Looks like you got a fair amount done today. It's not like more guys would have helped with the pipe fitting...

Pat,
Lookin really good under there. Are there going to be PVC hangers to support the plumbing?
 
Nice update!
