Yes Oxy, when I bought this tank 20, 25 years ago it was on the side of somebodies house. It had a painted mural of a jungle scene. The lady told me it didn't hold water and she had kept a snake in it at one time. I resealed the thing ,kept fish in it for 20 years. I suppose it's time for it to go back to what it once was. LOL. I have been shopping for a "new" tank. They are pricey but the peace of mind I'd have and the improvements I could make are a powerful incentive. Back then I couldn't afford something like this, now I can !
I have pretty much worked out the critter problem . My local club people are ready to help. The livestock is mostly going into the 75 I have been cycling for months ! I surely didn't want to load this tank with livestock all at once. It will throw the balance out real quick. I'm very fortunate I had the tank up and going . Anyway, it needed to be done. The only negative is Now I'll never catch up with the longevity of Paul B's tank!
