oh, and you guys are going to think I'm nuts (i think i am too) but I decided to re-do the background. I ripped it all out yesterday. I wasn't 100% happy with it, so out it came. I bought more concrete today along with some other misc items, and plan on working on it tonight or next weekend. The original background was OK, and would've worked, but I wanted it to be better.

Well better now then to decide that when it is fully stocked and you would have to move all of your fish.

I'm with you wizzin... I'm sure that if anticipation is killing me you have to be going batty but taking your time to get it perfect is great! I hate when I rush a tank then sit and think of how many other things I couldve done and I have sure never done anything on your scale. Good luck I loved the old background so I'm sure the next one will be great. Oh yes one more thing Wizzin......HURRY UP IM GOING CRAZY!!!!! Just kidding. Good luck.
