New tank...

[Paul_MTS]

Well here's the start of my Cookie tank!!

it's a nice bit of 50mm plumbing leading to the sump, enough to handle a huge hourly turn over.

For those that don't know Cookie is the Minions recent rescue mission and he's a 5inch Fahaka Puffer.

enjoy...

[Paul_MTS]

thats all ya getting for a couple of weeks, although maybe i can show you a picture of the inlets when i order them oh and how can i forget the pump and the heater

it's going to be a 4x2x2 tank with a 30x18x15 sump.

not sure what I'm going to do for lighting yet though.

I think Sir_Minion is going to get some pics up of cookie in the coming days so atleast you can see him!!
