Setting up my new 850L tank

[Loginthesand]

i bought this tank about two months ago but have been too busy with university to set it up finally i can start. first however i needed to reinforce my house.


i've dug two trenches about 1.5m long x 300mm x 300mm. tomorrow im filling these with cement.


my frame is in the dinning room where the tank will be set up



and the tank is outside next to my bike.

ill update as stuff happens.
