My Tank Thread
BLEACHED ROCK COMPLETE
Rock came out of bleach today. I was surprised at the amount of rock that wasn't white....apparent mineral deposits.
I'll let the rock air dry a couple days and then give it a couple rinses. I've found that air drying blows off the chlorine faster than trying to rinse it out.
TANK READY FOR PAINT
Tank was flipped upright and brought outside in anticipation of painting. That will happen tomorrow. Had to work with my able bodied neighbor's availability to help carry the tank. Suppose to get rain tonight, so I'll cover it and then tape it off tomorrow. They are saying mid to high 60's tomorrow. Here it is and with the tank upright and you can get a better picture of the return lines, and that blue acrylic support, and see how the plumbing transverses the euro-bracing.
