My new fish room diary

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
hahaha... I just need to find a building that was built for heavy manufacturing... There are plenty in Edison NJ :)

You really thinking of that? I am about 40min from Edison and used to live in the town next door for many years. Not much going on there. There is Rainforest Cafe nearby and the have some amazing indian food :)

If you are seriously going the route of a new building, I think there was lots of manufacturing in Hoboken/Jersey City/Secaucus and the surrounding area. Hoboken and JC will be insanely expensive though, but I am assuming closer to wherever you currently live.

Don't convince him to go further north, Edison is a nice drive from here
 
I had a girlfriend that used to tease me like this.....

Good luck on future build, Vincent.

Sorry to hear this. I cant believe nothing can be done to reinforce the floor...smh
 
Bad day/news.... engineers said 'no no' The current floor can not support the weight of my planned build. Even if I cut the height of the tank to 6ft... still a no no...

Is it not a standard concrete floor? If my basic math is right a 60x20x10 is about 90,000 gallons. the old rule of 10 pounds per gallon would give us about 900k weight.

Your tank floors space is 1,200 feet. 900k/1,200 = 750 lbs. standard concrete will support about 3,000psi.

So unless I'm missing something?
