18' x 9' x 3.5' catfish tank build in progress.....

[necrocanis]

Camera is charging as we speak! Not going to be much to show only got to add another 2 boards wider plus took the part for the window out about 5 more, and put some ply underneath. I got some cheaper subfloor adhesive and I don't really like it, but will work until I go to get more. It's way thinner, and lasts not nearly long enough.

Didn't you say you broke your free window drilling? Why were you drilling the window lol?

it was kinda thin for a tank this size anyway, but I was scoring it with my dremel so that I could hopefully cut it, but now I know leave the cutting to the pros! I'm like that though. I love doing everything myself. So far everything I've done to this tank and my 200 gal build has been all me. Save for some of the moving them around. lol, I'm strong, but not superman. Here's the pics I promised. Not much progress, but was a busy break. Next break goals:
1 Buy more wood
2 Cut more wood
3 Add at least another 3' of length to this bad boy
4 start prepping the first two filter barrels
5 maybe purchase the rest of the filter chambers.
6 finish the 200 gal and fill it lol.

Don't know that I'll get all of those done, but we'll see.

and hurry up !

As Necro has mentioned, this project won't be done very fast as he works 5 days straight and isn't home during those days... then is home for 5 days (which is when the work will get done) But he also has other projects which he is working on, Not to mention the time needed for upkeep of his current tanks.

I'm sure he's more modivated than we are to get it done and will do so as quickly as possible

I'm sure he would thank you for your interest in this project, Stay tuned as if there is one thing about Necro that is really awsome... it's that he's a picture freak and loves to take great photos
