My 90 gallon tank journey

[Fishfinder]

What are the dimensions on the new tank?

 

[justingraham]

I like that Cookie Monster. Really nice blue

Yes it’s a different kind of blue then any of my other blue corals almost exactly like Cookie Monster which kinda makes sense in this situation

 

[justingraham]

What are the dimensions on the new tank?

4 foot by 3 foot by 21 inches
Stand is 58 inches by 41 inches by 53 high
Taped it out

She'll get use to it.

If you have a craw space, be sure to pour pads and use floor jacks.

Already did it when I set up this tank everything is already done in preparation

 

[justingraham]

Yea true I just have to win her over

 

[locito277]

New car should do it

 

[justingraham]

It should but she just got one so no go

Her main problem is we have 1000 square foot house with hardly any extra space and the way the tank sits now it will not be the best move leaving extra space I could rotate the tank but I always wanted a peninsula the other thing I could do is push the tank towards the hallway and make a room divider out of the tank this way there won’t be waisted space I have a great wife who puts up with a lot of bull from me so I need to make sure she is happy that is important to me she lets me get away with murder in my mind so who knows

I also have put stuff on the ground to get her used to walking around the tank and what not so hopefully after a week or two she will see that it isn’t that bad

Justin,

Do you have the green light?

 

[justingraham]

Justin,

Do you have the green light?

No
I finally rotated the tank so the overflow is to the left side near the window she hasn’t said no yet so I’m closer

 

[justingraham]

Still trying to talk the wife into the reef savvy she’s at the point where she just ignores me so progress is being made

I got a coupe corals and found out my par dropped about fifty so I had an orphek bar laying around that was a chore to mount but I got it done with some l brackets and some thinking

Off

On

Some top down iPhone shots

 

[locito277]
