hehe i know.... i hate it sitting on the floor, but at work my manager was jus transfered and i was hoping to get the promtion so i spent like 70 hrs at the store this past week, only to be passed over.... but thats okay, i know eventually ill get my own store. i did exactly what i wasnt gunna do... i got my self excited and primed up for a big let down.. so i havent done much... but today im gunna cut the plywood so i can place the tank up on top of the stand and then hoist that tank up there and finish the plumbng! at least i hope to

Keep working hard Clint; you'll get your promotion!!

Actually, an aquarium for a coffee table would be coolio... except everyone would be on their stomachs staring at it! LOL~

mnreefman · 06-06-2005, 07:24 PM

thanks doni,.....

sry i been away. ive been o busy that i havent gotten internet at the new house yet, so i cant do updtaes till i get back to the cities.... but i got the tank on the stand, and hopefully later this week i can finih the plumbing....
one thing forgot to think about.... height... 40" stand 25" inch tank.... i may be tall but not that tall. i cant reach the bottom..... so i m thinkin bout adding a step that runs across the bottom of the stand... well see... maybe ill just buy a step stool

Woodstock · 06-06-2005, 07:57 PM

I wish my stand was taller. It would make maintenance MUCH easier.
