Here's a few pics guys. Didn't get a whole lot accomplished, but anything is better than nothing considering how long I'm going to have to wait to seal it. I put one piece of ply on the inside, and here's a pic. Also a pic of moving the jau to his new home in the garage. He was way to big for the tank he was in so now he's moved to the 100 gal pond in the garage. My most ghetto of them all. lol. He's getting some size on him now. Next time he's moved it won't be in a bucket that's for sure. Also a pic of what a dat skeleton looks like after being cleaned, and ready for mounting.

Ummm.... no... my little garage holds alittle over 1500 gallons of tanks... there are 22 tanks in there right now.... Min 15 of those are 100 watt heaters there are 5 ish that are 200 watts and the 2 biger tanks use 600 and 700 watts respectivly so thats in the reagion of 4k watts vs the one 500 and the 750 room heaters... which hardly run ( the garage isn't all that big so it doesn't take a whole lot...not to mention once the space is heated it doesn't take much to maintian the heat.

Trust me If i shut off the room heaters then I can watch my hydro meter speed up... so they are doing the right thing for sure.

I lived in tropics and i have two 500W, two 300W and a 100W heater - AND i live in tropics (well sub-tropics) ... and i don't even heat the outdoor set-up (the fish are not very happy in that one at the moment ... temp is 30+ during the sunny day, 16 at night

the warmest room in the house is fish room due to the amount of heaters in aro tanks

PS: condensation inside the tanks is a killer though

Yo Necro, glad to see your kitties are fine ... i hope your heaters hold.

wow it'll be very nice when done!Hmmmm maybe if you don't get 2 RTC you could get 2 or 3 royal or clown knives, they would add a nice bit of metallic into your tank.
