This has been the best day at work! I just spent the last four hours reading this and your tank is truly an inspiration. I was thinking of building a tank and now I am thinking bigger is better. Thank you for all the pics and updates. Good luck on your move and cannot wait to see next tank!

Dang, I would dread having to move all those fish. Are you going to have enough time to build a new tank and cycle it before you have to move?

Has you house been sold yet? I'd be interested to see how the tank affects resale value.

Thanks..

And we aren't listing the old house until after the new tank is built and ready.

I am interested to see if the tank affects sale as well.. lol

It's easy to rip out just be sad to do so.

So you bought the new house before you sold the old one? Great plan. Is the new tank build going on MFK? I think last build was only a week long, lol, so I don't want to miss it :)

Are you going bigger? Any changes in filtration? I'm looking forward to your next build because there's always thing you would change if you could "do it again".
