Contest RyanG

[RyanG]

So Im a little late to the parade...but Im here. Im still mulling over the decision of whether to use a sump or not but I can at least get my thread started(ALEXANDER:mrgreen:)

So here it is, this is the only paper that I get so welcome to the world of the Allegany County Pennysaver!

Im really looking forward to this build, something cheap and fun to keep my interest up.

Hey! What are you trying to say? I'm not using a sump! And I'm gonna win this thing! :bounce:

 

[Alexander]

All I'm saying is he has the supplies to set it up. He needs to make that move.

 

[Ted]

welcome in:D

 

[bobby]

Well let see wome water in that thing already. I agree a sump will help, but I say don't go for it, because it gives you a better chance at not doing soo good and regardless of what biff thinks I'm winning this. MUHAHA J/k I would use a sump if it's available.

 

[Ted]

So ryan is there water and rock in your tank.

 

[dcantucson]

I almost forgot he was in this. Or is he?

 

[RyanG]

Im going to be really pushing for the deadline. I broke both of my tanks today! :( Drill a ten gallon is not easy at all!

 

[Alexander]

Should have done hob man. That's tempered glass!

 

[RyanG]

Its not tempered. Nothing under 37 gallons is tempered according to marineland. OBTW whats up with your phone today?

 

[bobby]

I haven't ran into any 10 gal tempered tanks. I have drilled two 10 gal tanks and both drilled out great. The key is to keep it lubricated and use next to no pressure. It takes a bit, but be patient and don't try to hurry it up.

 

[RyanG]

Tomorrow Ill try again. Anyone have a use for two ten gallon tanks with broken panels?

 

[bobby]

You can make a new ten out of the two busted ones so you don't have to buy another......Or use the two good sides to get some more practice instead of trying to drill another right away.

 

[RyanG]

I successfully drilled the hole today!

 

[dcantucson]

Yea!!! No broken glass. Third times the charm. :lol:

 

[bobby]

Great. Congrats, but it didn't happen until we see the pics.LOL

 

[Alexander]

Yay where are the pics!
