Well, that was about 30 hours of work over the weekend but the tank is finally up and running!
We ended up removing all of the panels from the stand to safely get it inside.
Drilled some holes for the plumbing. Gluing that was a real ******* of a job.
It was really convenient that the tanks were next to one another. Super easy to just pump over the water. With the reefer gone I can finally start working on that part of the room.
Lending a helpful paw
It’s only out of the water that you realize how large some of the colonies are
And this is the new tank
Look at that ray of sunshine on the strawberry shortcake haha
I still have a couple of things that needs doing, like setting up the automated water changes etc but I'm fairly pleased with the progress over the weekend....and I'm very happy I managed to “finish” this project before our daughter arrives in about 7 weeks.
