congrats on the tank, stand and canopy! they look really nice. i hope to join the club before fall semester starts.

btw. remember those 40g tanks you sold me through sean? well, i cleaned them up, resealed them with black silicone, painted the back, bottom and trim, and covered the bulk head holes with glass. they look pretty decent now. i put both on a gorilla rack. those tanks were a steal! thanks again even though it was forever ago.

Thanks man! I'm glad you put more use to them then i did.. lol

if the tank will crack it will crack during the drilling. im not worried about after the hole is drilled. Plus i plan on just drilling a hole for 1 2" bulkhead on the side of the tank not the bottom as i read most bottoms are tempered. Wish me luck wanna help.

I'll shatter your tank if I touch it! That's the reason why I stay away from glass tank!

congrats on the pickup and the stand looks good.

Are you a stand builder? You, Sean, and Joe have been exchanging wood skill the past few months, haven't you? Don't drill the tank It sucks to come down stair in the morning, and find out Katrina hits your house!

He's being modest. Beside dragon hunting with House_64, he has good wood skills. I'll show you a pic in PM since I don't want to derail this thread.

Ky, talk to Jebo Chris. His dad has experience drilling glass tanks.

They may be good with wood, but you're good a sanding, especially sanding without removing old paint!

heres a little update.. been up and running for 2-3 days now. I took all the biomax from the used FX5 and put it on the new one. Used about 30% of established water.

Sweet lights that I picked up from John, thanks again J! and thank you Sean for my other heater!

Just plain 10K

Here is a shot with all the lights on, more blue?

My tank cyclers gasping for air??

My little deformed Delhezi is also helping me cycle too.

Some sweeet glass tops I scored from work too!
