did you drain your tank before trying to move it? just wondering why the seam failed? who built your first tank? sorry for your loss this must be extremely stressfull

 

[jazonPartij]

The biggest concern & most terrifying task in all of this is
Moving this 7 footer out the way & to keep her running before move over
Keeping my stock safe & well
Have to move her 10ft safely

I just moved my two foot cube and was completely stressed

 

[carlson]

You went through what most of us have nightmares about! It's great your insurance company was helpful

I was just showing the Miss you thread, and her only comment was " you guys are strange about your fish tanks"

 

[carlson]

I'm glad your fish are doing well! They seem to be at home in their container, but they're probably just thankful they aren't on the floor haha

Strange ?
In what way ?

 

[jsker]

Strange ?
In what way ?

Exactly

finally sorted
Running them at 100% for 50hrs as directed
Makes a great heater too for these cooler days
Linear actuator is fitted allowing. 45cm lift to the ceiling which is enough clearance to get into the tank
After some connection problems - combination of software issues & me being a computer dummy
Now sorted.
Leds arrive May 10th & are easily fitted to the existing frame in between each unit
