Bye the way, your setup is simply amazing,

I may have picture of it but to fit it in the double doorway we rolled it in on it's front face. Then with 6 guys and a bunch of scution cups tilted it back to the stand and lifted the front. We used leveage for sure as it was mounted on 2 sheets of plywood. It wasn't easy but we were able to tilt it back enough to use the stand as the back side "holder".

I don't have time for multiple build threads. And there aren'y many large tanks these days on ARC.

Chris, I am going to be tagging along here on RC for updates, better yet, guess I just need to get over there and take a look at this beast.
Looking amazing so far.

VERY nice... I am building a new system in the ATL area too. Im going to be tagging along to get some ideas. My system is about 700 gal total.

screamingibis · 07/22/2014, 09:23 AM

Not to sound like a girly man, but the choice of paint color in your display room looks good.

ohioboy706 · 07/22/2014, 08:28 PM

Nice

dson78 · 07/22/2014, 08:46 PM

Thanks. When I first walked downstairs in this house I looked to the right and it was the first thing that came to mind. It used to be a pool table room.

Much better use, IMHO. Can put a nice card table in there and distract your friends with fish and take all their money.

Great build so far, tagging along.

Legalreefing · 07/23/2014, 01:50 PM

Like a boss! Lol. Being local I'm going I have to come by and see this beast! I remember your other build from ARC

Declanisadog · 07/23/2014, 05:36 PM

Awesome build! Did you get that femininus local, or online? Either way, that's my all time favorite

muttley000 · 07/23/2014, 07:08 PM

I was lucky enough to have a local store that brings in very high quality live stock with a lengthy QT.
