    Re: Ah...nothing beats that new aquarium smell!

    Just a thought, but would it not be prudent to leave at least a foot or more over on the left, in case you had to get access back on that side for any reason.

    Your call, your house and you certainly know best.


    PS.... Lovely new tank you got there..... :)

          I agree, and we would have except it just barely fit as it was.  I can crawl in underneath (I have twice already, it's like a studio apartment in there) in case I need to get up on that side.  We left almost 5 inches between the tank and the wall behind it so plenty of arm room.  I'll post a pic of the room once we get to a point where it's possible and you'll see what I mean by lack of space.  :-)

          PS - guygeek just said he's going to mount a TV underneath and put a bed in and rent it out as a studio apartment if you know anyone who needs a place to live.

                    WOO HOO!!!  :dance:  We broke the 1000 gal mark for tanks (pond doesn't count) I think we officially need help now. I think we... uh, I mean girlgeek has gone too far :signhelp:

                    Thank you so much Charles (official shout out)   :bsty: for having this amazing new tank made for us. You rock  :rockon: and yes, the movers did manage to somehow get this beast in the house.

                        May I make the suggestion that you move the picture on the left hand side...  else you will never look at it again... :) :) :)

                        Second question... who is the maker of the tank ?  Oceanic or Ocean Atlantic ? or someone else ?

                        You know one morning you guys are going to wake up to like 10 people sitting in your all's living room just looking at the tanks..  "we wanted to see what it looked like at night..."  <-- Humor, but what do you expect from a tired Dane at 12:43am

                          Moving of pictures is tomorrow night.    

                          We had it custom made by Charles' contact at FRII.  I'm not sure what his name is, but he did a beautiful job.

                          That's cool!  I'm sure the fish would like the extra company!!  And that's not even the living room...that's the dining room.  The living room has 4 more tanks in it.    (I'm delirious) And we have another tank sitting in the middle of the office until tomorrow when, according to guygeek, we are going to do more tank swapping...personally I think we are going to wake up and have to call Loretta to come with her RN skills to get us up.
