My new 125 Gallon

Michael_Lambert · 05-10-2004, 09:08 PM

So....

After setting up the wifes new 90 Gallon i decided that well.. I just needed to do somthing new for ME!!!!!!

So i got a great deal on this new to me 125 gallon tank 72 x 22 x 18, I had it drilled in the center back of the tank with a 2 1/2 inch hole and just waiting on the overflow box for it..

But i started the work on it.. and here we gooo

The tank and stand!

Here is the location that the tank is going to go into.. Just need to start cutting away the water lines so i can relocate my washer and dryer...

And from the viewable side!

Michael_Lambert · 05-10-2004, 09:12 PM

And here we go with the stage one.. lol,

Got the hole punched out... And just waiting on more money to pick up the molding from homedepot So i can clean up the cuts there.. Make it all look more professional.. and then i can start the debate on what color to paint the wall!

For those who are wondering, the hole above was my old nano.. Just need to fill in the hole..

WORKED GREAT!

No leaks.. in either the seams or the bulkhead.. So i will leave it full overnight and see what happeneds

Currently the tank is lite by 4 x 36 inch NOS.. 2 64k and 2 actinics.
