its the case of, do some work/spend some money on the kitchen now, then order the glass, but it's coming.

Filter still at same level as last night :D :D :D :headbang2

just out of interest, i used 'west systems' epoxy to do the clear coats, pretty good stuff all round, but it does carry at serious health warning, apart from that its cured great :)
You know it's good stuff if you can get extremely high off of it:D

im impressed :D
................inuendo with held as it's a family site.

Some pics as i've not done much recently. Old one of a rather damp towel from when i realised the expansion problem


And a slightly different angle:



Got mrs satan to climb in for me earlier, got filter box up in the corner and the 48 bricks out that were holding it up before (didn't look that many through the glass.) As can be seen, the water level is still half way up the glass as it has been for the last few weeks and i have a towel stuck in the bottom of each window frame but i've had no leak problems since the left one started briefly so i've stopped draining any lower until i have liner ready to patch over the windows.

Will be getting some pipe for the filter outlets so it's piped straight down to the water rather than just flowing like it is for now. It's splashing a lot as it is and is very noisy:irked:

Lol, thanks, i'm always impressed with the size............

So I saw, loads more cots and give it a couple of weeks to dry maybe?
took the words out of my mouth. i think i do need to give it plenty of time to dry, paper work said few hours but you're right, leave it a long long time and grow some patience! lol!

Baby, I think there's something wrong with you; by the very nature of what it is, that water is maintained at TROPICAL temperatures, feels like a nice swimming pool temperature to me:ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:
