Nice build. When you buy the lumber in a sling is there a significant price break?

Nice to see some monster tanks nearby. I am in the Tri-cities where you can't even buy a healthy guppy. My fish commute from Seattle or Spokane.

Now this is one of the plywood tanks on MFK that should last decades.

Water depth is going to be about 30". Filtration will be getting done soon, going to have the biggest aquabead they make, supposedly can filter a 25,000 gallon pond, and a fishmate sponge filter rated for a 9000 gallon pond.

Today will be a busy day, we are installing the windows, bulkheads, and aeration. I will have pictures and an update late tonight.

Why feck about when you can put a massive bead on it;) Probably OTT but when filtration is concerned , go the biggest you can.

Get my point Mike?
