Who's joking? I'll hand dig it for beer.

I second that, oh and maybe some bbq too

 

[Coralczy]

Lol. You never know what we will figure out next. With Roy's monster and now Karen's upgrade I need to get planning. Can't let my neighbors out do me. Lmao

Looking forward to your build thread.

Reeffrontiers, Well, Karen and her husband Doug, came to the shop to pick up their new tank. It was nice to finally meet them face to face. What a neat couple, felt like we had known each other for decades! They are excited for the new tank. I bet they have it filling before the night is over. Thank you guys for your business. I had a lot of fun building your dream tank. Here are a few last pic's, before it left the shop.

Side covers to hide the COFB.


Fish Containment covers to have 25 lb fishing line weaved through the holes like a tennis racquet.


A Front view.


Thank you, again and enjoy! Jason

How do you clean out the inside of the overflows? Looks deep!

Beautifully done man!:rockon:

The COFB covers are black, which helps cut down on stuff growing in there, but there is 4 nice sized access ports to get in there if need be. If a fish gets into the COFB area, I'd just unscrew the Primary drain stand pipes and give them a ride down to the sump. Best waterpark ride ever! :fencing:

Thats EXACTLY what i did with my midas blenny last week. Caught him in the filter sock...lol

Was nice to finally meet you as well. Thank you building us the most amazing and beautiful tank ! All the small details really make the tank , like the black sides to cover the plumbing . We will enjoy for many years.

I didn't know you were supposed to clean the overflow LOL. But if I needed to plenty of room. Easier than my current center overflow. And yes it is beautiful!

Glad you got your tank! Now lets see the build thread!!!!
