New Tank Build

[Lynden]

Good to have you back Navarre. I hope the new tank goes well. I don't have any doubts that something as trivial as a wall will keep the new tank out of your living room...

Have you not got any french windows at the back?

any updates?

 

[Navarre]

No french windows im afraid and even if i did it still wouldnt get the tank into the living room as these doors are the same size

No updates at this time. I was hoping ot hear about the tank this week but no news as of yet. It should be here at the latest by next week. I am currently working on a tank stand design nisketchup but im not sure im happy with it yet.

Ok its finaly arrived!


Well its at the shop anyway I have had 1 panel removed so it will fit through the door, we shall then drill the base when its in the living room as it will be easier with the side panel off.
I wont be having the tank in the house for at least another week as i have a busy week ahead but after this i intend ot get into the project fully.

Here is a couple of photos of the new tank.

This is a photo showing the removed panel

And this is a photo of the tank sitting next to another tank that is exactly the same size as the one i have just removed! As you can see it saves alot of space and is only just under half its volume!
