Here are some pics of the latest work in my fish, hangout, antique car parking room. The rope clip is for holding my tank cover up.(Harken Carbo Cam from a boat shop),The tank is 480gal. I put the lights up 2' above the tank to allow room to work. A little too high. Done now, too much work to change. Pics show the cover up and ropes locked in the clips. The pirana are in a 120gal. glass tank. 4'x20"x20". The whole pirana tank is shown. My customers want to see pirana. I like the way they school up. The cat fish are what is in the big tank. A 28" spotted shovel nose, and a 18" Liarus pictus. Enjoy the pics. Planned is a 135gal used tank in the corner spoken for not picked up yet. Don't know what to put in it yet. Next to the 120gal tank I'm putting a 60gal (24"x20"x20") for a couple good size gulper cat I have spotted. The tank in the back is a 110gal used tank with a 1-A.lungfish, 4-bichirs, 1-tiger shovel nose, all small and growing. By the way the lights are 1920s or 30s Halophane lights. The little pull chains open and close a appeteur on the bottom. I leave them open. Enjoy

Nice cats and you got some killer looking tanks!
 
The chain link looking stuff on the lid is polypropaline or something like that. Can't quite remember the name of it, but close.Tied on with wire ties. I got it at McMaster Carr hardware for about $2.65 a running foot. I got the tank used with no lids. Figured I needed some kind of lid. The metal frame was cut down come on the sides. It was for hanging lights for live rock. That's what the tank was used for before.
 
SPOTTED SHOVSKI'S, i love that tank, except the lid.
looks like a cage match going on between catfish lol.
