Re: Doc's Shark Tank

I apologize for my absence. I have been riduculously busy. Not to mention my LFS sold my tank before I could get it. That is my fault for not buying it sooner.

I have to wait for another one now. Week? Month? Lame. Sorry, out of my control. But still coming. At least no one has bought my shark from the LFS. I think I will buy that and just leave it there until I can get me tank set up.

Re: Doc's Shark Tank

Oh, and for those who mentioned needing a brace for support along the back, I did that. I put a 2x4 along the back, going from the top left of the tank stand to the bottom right. I secured it to the frame all along the way. It seems pretty sturdy.

doc, if your shark is not at the LFS by the time you can house it, liveaquaria sells sharks

Nothing secret is going on. I am just without a tank. I am looking on internet classified for a used one in the mean time while I get a tank ordered. I am not wanting to wait three months for a tank to come in. I am having a hard time finding a big tank that is used though. Something will happen before too long.

Re: Doc's Shark Tank

He is acclimated, looking HUGE, and happily hanging out in my tank. There is a long story about how I got here, but, regardless of that... I have a
