My new 2600 gallon plywood tank project

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thanks..

Will keep you posted when I get the fiberglass mat in and get that applied. Will be a week or two at the most.

Once that is done I can install the background, fill, then start the cycle on the filtration.
Then install the heating system and the auto filling system.

If things don't fall apart again I should be ready for fish sometime around thanksgiving.
 
What ****e news VL, now things have got to start working out for you I am sure of it.
Keep your chin up mate :thumbsup:.
 
this is truly a monster build and cant wait to see a finished product after sitting down and reading this whole post from begining to end in like the past hour andf a half. i was looking for insperation on building a large tank. i say large tank now because before i called it a huge tank but in comparson to your a 400 to 600 gallon tank seems tiny. lol just a few questions where would i find a good tutorial on building a base and the basic funamentals for taking on a project like this? i'm new to the community and love this site. Also was your reason from staying away from fiberglass a desicion about smell or because of anything else? as a noob at this i congradulate you and hope for the best for your setup and sorry to hear about your fish.
 
I am so sorry about all the bad things that have been happening...it will get better hang in there

Hopefully the fiberglass is the trick and there wont be any "falling apart" going on!!!!!!! :)
 
Hi VL,

Are the ID sharks the only ones to survive? In a previous post I thought the clown loaches and FRT made it through the night; did you have more casualties?

Sorry about your loss btw.

Lol, yeah hopefully.

I guess on a positive note, the ID sharks are going to love being the only big fish in the new tank for some time.
