Evening all,
I did start a day thread but realised quite early on that i have dont nothing myself so didn't bother updating. Anyway, i ordered a new 320g tank a few weeks ago and set about preparing things for it's arrival. Whilst my flat is ground floor, it had a floating floor which groaned under my weight so a 1200ltr tank was a no no. So I appointed a building contractor to reinforce the floor and remove the window to get the bugger in. I also needed a stand for the tank that would distribute the weight effectively over the floor. Thankfully, i have some good fabrication contacts thanks to my car shenanigans and a week later i had a stand. Anyway, enough words; here are some pics..!
stand...
tank...
tank on stand, through window. Builder still mildly bemused...
a few hours later, full!
I'll update tomorrow when i have begun the transfer... Also have a few new additions on the way too.
