Well, we'll find out soon enough. I'm guessing that this last fix is the make or break point for this tank (I'm thinking make, but we'll see).

You're free to say it but it's kind of rude.

Hope to see this thing finished and holding water soon.

Thanks for the well wishes. Much appreciated!

I wasn't feeling well Friday night, Saturday, and still today, but was able to get the last two coats of Permadri Rubber Coat on the 2x6 frame behind the window over the Ken fix. I used over a gallon with all the coats I put on it. I still have some left over, but I don't think I need to do more after 6 or so coats.

Going to have Ken come over this week and inspect it and help me do the finish work above the tank and caulk and paint it again while we wait for the Permadri to cure.

Hmm, seems my above comment using the app was several days old.

Anyway, looking forward to this latest development.

I really hate waiting for stuff to cure!

In other news, I'm trying to get back into importing fish again. It's been many eons of time (circa pre-Internet), so drooling over some of the lists I've been getting. Can't imagine how nice the lists will get when the rainy season is over. It'll probably take a few local only orders before I'm set up to ship, but looking forward to it. Trying to put a Brazil order together to bring in some 2.5" azuls, red head tapajos and blue lip (G. argyrostictus) geos. Gotta stock this beast somehow right?!
