i have crabs is on a distinguished road
Default 300g upgrade

ok ill start by saying i should have taken more pics and mabey kept better track of what i was doing and mabey even had a real plan before starting this nonesence but if your from the getto you do things getto.

the problem i had was dennis and albert decided to get me hooked on large fish which was fine for about a year while everything was small living in a 130g (72x18x24) it was running on 2 ac110's and a coralife hob skimmer. i bought the tank used and did not notice the scratches untill i filled it up with water but at the time i didnt care. i couldnt find a tank shot but heres a vid of me tring to aclimate some fw goldfish into the tank(didnt go well)

so what i decided to do was build a 300g in my basement once developed,
the tank is 96Lx30wx24t i kept it 24t just so i could reach the bottom without being a pain and i figured the 8' long and 30w would give lots of room to swim.
picking up the tank the day after it rained was the first retarded move since loading a 300g tank into the back of a blazer and then driving it down a hill between the 2 houses so i could slide it right into my basement door. lets just say its a good thing i didnt lay sod befor i got the tank.

its also a good thing the blazer is a 4x4


thats the tank in the house please ignore the junk in the background like i said i was finishing the basement and still am.
notice the euro brace's around the back are not on due to stupid move number 2 but we will talk more about that soon enough.
