Hi everybody! New to the PSAS, lovin' the tanks that I'm seeing, but I'm trying to find info (any at all) local Puget Sound cold water setups. I'm trying to set one up with a 180 gal (4x2x3tall) tank. I can't find any sights with substance or pics. This will be an awesome tank I think, but I would like to find some resources to bounce ideas off of. Appreciate any and all feedback, thanks.
Oh, also the tank I just aquired has a small crack in the upper right side wall of the aquarium it is about two inches from the corner about 1/2 in long and angling toward the corner. The acrylic is 3/4 in and the crack doesn't penetrate all the way through. I've spoken to some people that say this isn't that big of a deal and that I could drill a small hole and fill with weld on 42, others suggest an acrylic strap all the way around the top of the tank. The crack happened when the previous owner picked the tank up by (I think its called) euro-bracing. Any thoughts/tips.
Thanks everybody, excited to be part of the PSAS! Will keep you posted on progress, and hope to get pics up soon.
