StinkyBunny Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 Seems Lyme disease isn't done with me yet. I woke up in a puddle of sweat this morning that would float a damn canoe. I DO NOT need this shit right now, not even a little bit. Quote Link to comment

StinkyBunny Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 Well, for the first time since last Saturday I woke up dry. Lemme tell you, Lyme disease sucks big time. In other news, we're off to look at a custom tank that a customer of a custom tank manufacturer refused, 51x26x24, 140 gallons. 3 Quote Link to comment
StinkyBunny Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 140 was a bust. Went up to Philly to a former wholesaler to look at a few 120s, they were skeery. Those tanks were around when Christ was a corporal, lol. The search goes on for a pair of 80g rimless tanks. 1 Quote Link to comment

You could always cobble something together with some old windows and some glue, right? 2 Quote Link to comment

I actually have the glass from the old Dutch Mini-Reef tanks I took apart out in the shop. I've been looking for someone that has made tanks to help me put a 4' tank together but I haven't found anyone yet. I have a metric shittonne of glass out there. 1 Quote Link to comment

And no, I wasn't a virgin on prom night, lol. Hopefully it'll be here by 1300h tomorrow. 3 Quote Link to comment
StinkyBunny Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 That moment when you're building a sump and you realize you don't have any caulk, FML!! Quote Link to comment
StinkyBunny Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 I has a new goodie, pics in a few hours when we clean it up, Muahahahaha! 2 Quote Link to comment
2Boxers Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 You mean I has a new goodie!!! Spent a little time scrubbing all the goop off of it, can't wait to start setting it up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
StinkyBunny Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 OK, here's the game plan: 1- make new sump, the 40B won't fit under the stand, sum biskit!! 2- Move into house and re plumb it using 3/4" pipe for the surge tanks 3- Put a durso type doohickey with 2-90* elbows on the outflow from the tank to stop the flushing sound 4- Hollow out 2 rocks to hide that pipework. My question to the engineering types on here is, should I just stick with the 1/2" or go up to 3/4"? I'm not concerned about flow too much, just trying to stave off that flushing sound. Next weekend is a trip to the beach to collect food, menhaden, silversides, grass shrimp and maybe a few mullet if they're in the canal. If anyone would like to tag along, you're more than welcome to do, you'll have to drive, pups are going too so teh Monsta be full. 1 Quote Link to comment

StinkyBunny Posted August 18, 2017 Author Share Posted August 18, 2017 Plumbing is stalled, need to take apart one of the bulkheads. A trip to Home Depot tomorrow for a few fittings and a length of hose. 2 Quote Link to comment
