72 Bow upgrade

[MadReefer]

Finally painted the room this weekend and touched up the 72 bow Marcus gave me. So will be switching over this week. I went a bit mad. Since my tank was on laminate floor I was able to slide it forward so the 72g can be placed behind it. This will make the move simple, I hope.

Looks good mark, going with sand or bare bottom?

 

[MadReefer]

Sand, but not much.

 

[Trio91]

Awesome, looking forward to it.

Gonna drill it? I always wanted to but was always scared to

 

[MadReefer]

Was thinking about it but decided not to. Concerned about structural integrity with the broken brace so will leave as is. Why take chances.

 

[Trio91]

gotcha...

1st mishap...

Pumping water into the tank and went back into my office. Go back out to check on it a short time later and the hose fell out of tank spilling a few gallons of water on the floor. Ugghh

I've had that happen, always a joy to clean. I have another bad habit though, i put a pump into my ro water with a line leading to my 15g top off bucket for my tank. Well, every damn time i fill it, i forget about it, walk away, and i have 5-10 gallons of water on the floor waiting for me when i come back. I really need a float switch shut off for it.

suz dude, i hope its a tiled floor
