gena Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Maybe.......takes one to know one. :^ ) How's your remodeling/ addition going? Hasn't started yet. But I am collecting things for it. So far just bathroom fixtures but we're looking at pedestal sinks and toilets . The tentative start date is Oct. 17! They are pretty much waiting on us to give them the go. I'm waiting on my painter. He's scraping the acoustic ceilings away which I've had and hated for 13 years! Finally got them tested, no asbestos . So he's going to remove those and then I'm going to have him paint the walls. Then I can move things into the living room and they can start the remodel. It's the tank holding me up. I could move everything now but I don't want to relocate that tank. I just want to transfer it. 3 Quote Link to comment

Garden hose with a spray attachment, ladder and scraper......best improvement ever! You're doing an addition as well.....right? Or am I making stuff up? Quote Link to comment

We were going to do an addition but can't swing it right now. Maybe in a few years? It is definitely something we would like to do! 1 Quote Link to comment

jack1978 Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 That plastic doesn't look so natural............... It's clear.......you can't see it. That looks nice! Thanks......I think I finally decided on the "core" of the scape.......although its not what I was originally after. Gonna have to liquidate a few corals I believe We were going to do an addition but can't swing it right now. Maybe in a few years? It is definitely something we would like to do! Ya....money.......or lack there of.........is like waking up, rolling over in bed and looking right into the still sleeping eyes of MONDAY! We're hoping to bump our place out in 2017. Fingers crossed. 2 Quote Link to comment

jack1978 Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 Still waiting patiently for pics... Not the final version....but getting closer. After getting everything epoxied, I'll let it sit in my sump for a while before setting up the new tank. 8 Quote Link to comment
gena Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Is this a new tank or one you had set up previously? Looks like dead coralline algae on the back wall, which is why I ask. I tried to find pico aquariums and didn't see them online. Are they still in business and I'm just online search challenged? 1 Quote Link to comment
