spspirates 150 gallon build

[spspirate]

Andy, if you were to have followed my original Build Thread over on RF you'd feel a whole lot better about the progress of yours.... lol
Over a year to get it wet and only just two weeks ago mostly completed my canopy, now I'm thinking seriously of replacing the tank by this Fall with a taller version in same footprint to get more volume. My wife just gives me 'one of those looks' but I keep telling her that I could have MUCH WORSE of a hobby or addiction.

Cheers, Todd

HAHAHA!! Now I don't feel so bad..

Ahhhh..... Andy and Jackie you just need two beefy hunky guys to handle a 180g AGA....... Did I tell you that Duane (trido) and I dismantled a 180g system and carried tank about a 100' to a trailer then drove 80 miles before carrying up a driveway through a garage and into the basement for new owner. We also delivered a 175 Bowfront to a Dental Office with just the two of us. Of course now that being 50-something must be to old...lol

So Andy, are you telling me/us that before the 4th of July you actually might get this puppy WET :rockon:


Cheers, Todd

Hahaha Todd! We are in our 50 somethings too! Well it was 3 females & 3 males carrying the tank. So that may have been the issue too. The guys being over 6' and us women at 5'2" and under probably didn't help either. Untill about year ago we always had tons of big strong boys around here. As our kids left so did they, all went off to college and we have only 1 left in HS :(
