Gools,

That's looking good. If you need a hand lifting the tank up onto the stand, make sure you give ask me. I bought 2 "glass suction cup lifters" (who knows what they're really called) from Princess auto earlier in the year getting ready for when I get a new tank.

Sounds good. I'm dreading the lift. But it won't be for a while anyways

Sucker. LOL.

Guess I should have mentioned it a 300g. 96x30x24. I can't even slide it on my carpet. And I'm a pretty big guy.

Yikes...Sucker is right. Oh well, I'll just call on you when I need my tank lifted up too.
So who made your tank? Is it new or did you have it at the last place?

I got it from aquarium illusions in Edmonton. One of their display tanks they were selling.
I had a 180 in Winnipeg, but shipping was to much, and gave me an excuse to finally upgrade
what size tank are you upgrading to?
Later, Nigel

Nigel, I don't know how I missed the size of your new tank!

I can't believe you are building a setup like that and there hasn't been a thread documenting the build. I might have to offer my limited services to help you lift it, just so I can see this thing. Let me know if you need any help.
