Finally got around to re doing the girlfriends 150. She's been holding onto this piece of driftwood for two or three years now, just wanted to show it off.

Took one with the camera flash. I thought it was a cool pic, especially seeing the reflection from all of the fish eyes lol.

Lol, she found it floating in the middle if Pymatuming lake a few years back. And that's what's left after she cut off what she knew wouldn't fit into the tank.

It's large enough that it blocks out like 25 percent of the lights. It's a good look though and the silver dollars seem to enjoy it much more than the previous set up which in hindsight, was way to bright.

Time to take me a diving trip to Pymatuming. I've seen some big driftwood there while fishing but nothing that big, imagine how big the submerged stuff might be :D

Yeah, if I had to guess, she lost about 25 gallons of water with it lol. It's what she wanted tho.

Is your tank on CASTERS????! How.. can they be strong enough..

Also, very nice tank. That piece of wood would cost hundreds at the LFS.

Yes. The stand that was built for.it was built on 8 caster wheels. It's been on that stand for close to ten years now. I know what everyone is thinking, I'm baffled as well lol.

I've seen some mighty heavy tool chests and equipment mounted on casters. Heavy duty casters aren't as rare as you might think if you know where to look. Just have to make sure they're attached properly. 8 industrial casters would spread the weight out pretty well.
