I think once I get the tank on the stand, I might pop up a couple pictures. So far the build has taken a few months.

Thanks for the offer to lift the tank, if I need a hand I'll give you a shout. If you ever want to venture over and give some opinions, would be great. Mark came last weekend, and gave me a few new ideas.

Well Nigel, now that we've moved the tank onto the stand...I'm expecting to see more pictures on here. Speaking of the move, that went a lot better than I expected. I barely have any aches or pains...lol. If nothing else, it took a lot of the dread of putting a large tank in my own house away.

Let me know if you need some hands to help you with the plumbing.

Maybe I should start a thread soon. That did go alot better then I thought. I think I would have been fine with just 4 guys. Thanks for your help Mark. I'll keep you posted if I need a hand.

Making some progress. Tank is filled with fresh water, to test the plumbing for leaks, and finishing durso's, and other things to make it quieter. Just trying to round up some sand, then some rock. Then I will be working on the light rack and wiring up the lights. Today I built the stand for my fuge, frag, and Q tank. Building it in my livingroom with the kids, as that's the only way it will ever get done, but I must say we all had a blast.
