  1. Why thinking thing through is a good thing!

    by , 08-17-2010 at 01:36 PM (T.I.B.E.T (The Incredibly Big Expensive Tank))
    Last night my other half, Kevin, and I are hanging out in our basement/demo central. We were trying to make a shopping list for the hardware store so that we can finish the fishroom after the delivery of our water change tank. So our shopping list starts piling up and Kevin turns to me and says "where do you want the hole for the fan exhaust?"

    Way back when we had a discussion about removing the window, and bulding a vent box to sit in the frame. I thought we were still ...

  2. Water change system 90% complete!

  4. 240g Upgrade Day 4

    Day 4

    Not a lot of work, just some more planning and I picked up a 150g for a sump for free, THANKS Slandis. It needed a little work, here's how it looked when I got it, both overflows were broke, no biggie wasn't going to use them. I got half done due to knife blades breaking and running out gonna finish it tomorrow. Now all I need is a big ol glass hole saw for the end and I'm set, and a few baffles.
