I have been procrastinating on putting up a build thread for my new display tank. In fact I have been procrastinating about completing the build as well. Part of the reason is that it is a lot larger of a project than I have typically taken on. This project entailed turning a bedroom in the basement of a house I moved to into a fishroom. As you will see, I have a bit of an issue sticking to a single plan. I often change horses mid race, sometimes for the better, sadly sometimes not.
I will be posting photos, but first I need to give you the back story.
Because this is my first "large" tank, I decided I wanted something with decent depth front to back. My previous tank was 18" front to back, and I wanted more of a footprint for aquascaping. So I purchased a Marineland 300DD tank and set about getting the wall and floor of the new fishroom prepared to accept the 300DD. The process started in August 2016.
The wall of my soon to be fishroom where the 300DD will be placed.
And the demo and rebuild begins
Some supplies are already arriving, it won't be long now! ...
