Re: Doc's Shark Tank

i lfs only pays 1 dollar a gallon so here it would be better to sell using the paper of craigslist.

Re: Doc's Shark Tank

but you also have to take into consideration how long it might take for it to actually get sold on craigslist, it might take months, if it gets sold at all

Re: Doc's Shark Tank

I put It up on my local classifieds and I got a bid for full price after 12 hours. I am hopeful. It is worth the attempt.

Re: Doc's Shark Tank

So, I have a new tank..... F%&K YA!!!

But, it does come with a price. After I picked up the tank, I borrow my neighbor to help me take the tank down my stairs. I placed the tank on the top of the stairs and we slowly lowered it down the stairs....until the weight was too much for my neighbor, who let the whole thing go....all on me (damn it was heavy) and then, into my wall....




My sweet wife was kind to me and did not kill me for putting a HUGE hole in the wall. The plastic frame on the top of the tank cracked and now, I am scared about it. I need some direction from the smart ones here to let me know if I need to do something to increase the integrity of the tank since the top is cracked...not the glass, but the black frame.

Re: Doc's Shark Tank

But, I am happy to have a BIG ASS tank in my basement, just waiting to get cleaned, re-siliconed, and filled with my current tank inhabitants and 2 more angelfish. I am planning on getting a blue-faced and an emperor before the end of the year. Here is another pic of the tank.



I will clean it out this weekend and make sure it is ready to go. I may have to wait til next weekend to make the switch since the holiday weekend is already full of plans and I don't want to disappoint the kids. SWEET!!!! I am just so excited about my AWESOME find, it was just so much bigger than I thought it would be....

Re: Doc's Shark Tank

Whats a little wall damage?Small price to pay for a bigger tank.Congratulations Doc.
Before moving the tank anymore.Use some super glue on that broken trim.That should hold it just fine if you let it set for a few hours.Or you can use gorellia glue.That'll hold anything.
