OK here is an update on my tank. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I got the rock in the tank and I have been keeping the lights off so I dont get a resurgance of the slime that I had in the 30G. My seals in my filter were all dried and the hose block would leak constantly. I contacted...

Wow 1974... Alot has changed since then. We still have the lobsters and crabs in all the grocery stores, Madigan is still here, I am not sure about the boat races on Spanaway Lake (out of season right now), but I did hear a speed boat on the lake last weekend. Brown and Hailey is still here...

The "New" tank is doing OK. I didnt have enough salt to start it properly but I have it mixing right now. I kept the LR from my old tank that had the green slimy stuff on it and well.. not all the green stuff died off while in storage. I am going to treat the tank with the slime be gone stuff...

Hey guys. I have finally moved to my new home. I am in WA now thank god I am out of VA. I dont have any room for my 30G tank in this little house so I have it in storage. I again made the 90G a freshwater (sorry I still cant afford the LR and filtration for it) but I am building my 15G into...

BTW the forums really changed alot since I was here last. I was not sure that I was even in the right place when I first logged in. Massey

The 90 Gallon will be fresh water again and with schooling community fish just like it was before. I am going to be building a canopy and upgrading my filter. The canopy will match the stand (the one I built a few months ago). With the filter I built it with a 15g tank as the base but when...

Hey guys, Well I am back kinda, I never really left I just have not been on in quite a while. I am in the process of moving across country and all my tanks are in transit. I am going to defidently set up the 90 gallon tank again (sry still not a salty tank I cant afford the equipment for it)...

Yes the lights will be under the tank and shown up through the bottom. I am going to use a clear bead or marble for the gravel and I am trying to get a purple/garnet color to match the stain for the wood. Massey

OK here is a rough drawing of the long side. This is all the farther my design is going to get on paper since I lack the drawing ability and I only need notes for future reference. This stand will be stained in the same color stain as the tank stand and also the same wood and routing will be...

I dont have any pics as of yet but I just came up with the design in my head for a wooden coffee table with a glass top and a 15G tank inside. In order to build this I need to find some one in my area that has a table saw that can rip a 1x4 and leave a 45° angle. I will post the design pics...

OK here are the last 2 pics till I get the fishies and other stuff for the tank. I hope you all enjoy, and thank you all for the compliments. Massey

I used a router for the tob and bottom trim. Using premade trim is the cheap way to go if you ask me. I built this all with screws except for the top and bottom frames which are held together with finishing nails but the sides also support them making a very strong stand. The fishtank is...

I am going to build the canopy after I get the tank up and running. My hood is brown while the rest of my stuff is black, plus I was to add some lights for plants later on and I will be needing those lights hidden too. I will keep you all informed about the hood I am going to try for a very...

Biff you changed your avatar!! lookin good and I will check out Marine Depot Thanks Massey

The pump will be submerged. I am going to make the plumbing with a T so I can bypass the extra pressure back into the sump to prevent overflows and also so I dont stress the pump by restricting the flow. Massey P.S. Does any one know where I can get one-way valves for PVC pipe? I believe...

I could do a discus tank but for now I think I am going to do schooling fish. A little less money and not that big of a deal if I end up in japan. We are also going to be planting the tank, which is new to both her and me too. Here are the pics of the stand after staining. I cant put it...

Thanks Mik! :) wait till you all see it now. I stained it and I am just waiting for it to dry enough to bring it back inside. I will get pics and put them up as soon as I can. Massey

Thanks guys! I am not leaving right now but I know it will be soon!! Massey

*cry* you guys done love me any more *sniff* OK really I was planning on making this salt when my wife and I put it on layaway but due to a few factors in our life right now we decided to make this one fresh. What we do know is that she is going to be stationed in Japan soon (VERY soon)...

Ok here is the almost finished pics. I ran out of wood so I could not finish the last door. The tank inside will become the filter and I have room still for another 10 gallon refill tank. I hate to tell you all this but this is going to be a freshwater tank not salt. The next big tank is...
