Glad to hear the move went smoothly

Where are the pics!? You of ALL people know we like photos here!

lcstorc · 07-06-2008, 06:04 PM

Well, I took the pics. Does that count?
Maybe I'll post them in a bit. I am awfully tired but at least I can do that while giving my feet a break.
Back to laundry for now. By then Frank will be home with the valve and hopefully we can finish this thing off.
We are going through a filter sock about every 2 hours so that is just some added fun.

Woodstock · 07-06-2008, 06:09 PM

Good idea.. rest your feet and post some pics!

Allright.
I knew I had to do it today or it would be forever as usual.
Here is the fun we had this weekend.
I didn't think to take pics until the tank was empty so you missed the first part and I was too busy watching and directing while the tank was literally moved. In case anybody cares, we emptied the tank, then moved it to the new stand and moved the tank and stand back to the original location. I have no idea how we could have done this on carpet. Fortunately my house is all tile. My husband and his son did all the work to give credit where it is due. I helped but they carried the thing.

lynn the tank is looking great. Im sorry to hear about all the original problems and am glad no one was seriously hurt.

Again the tank looks great, keep them updates and pics comng!!!

SeahorseBT · 07-07-2008, 03:38 AM

I like all the branching pieces, seahorses would love it in there!

BarbMazz · 07-07-2008, 08:04 AM

Looks like hard work! Sunshine doesn't look any worse for wear, which is definitely a good thing.

I like the new aquascape. I like the look of the clean overflow.

I notice you have an Insta-Hot in your kitchen! Aren't they just the best things?

I'm excited to see some ponies in there! I think they'll love all the great places to grab on to.

lcstorc · 07-07-2008, 08:35 AM

LOL
Cleaning the overflow was the last thing on my mind. I can always get that later. I just wanted to get the fish back in the tank so they wouldn't be stressed too badly.
Actually that isn't an instahot. It is my original RO unit. Now we just use it for drinking water.

Heck! I was going to invite you here to clean MY overflow. I think it's time.

That looks just like my instahot!

lynn that aquascape is kickass... very very nice

Woodstock · 07-19-2008, 12:21 PM

How did I miss your pics??

Excellent work Lynn (& Frank)

I really like the scaping and it looks like there will be lots of hitching posts for the ponies.
Keep up the great work.

Well put!!! Your tank looks great and I can't wait to see the progress. It would be cool if you posted 'progress pictures', what I mean is a couple of these so that we can see the progression. Very cool

Hi Lynn.... I am in the build-up of an other aquarium for two frogfishes (Antennarius pictus-Painted frogfish) . I like your Aquascaping, very inspiring.
