Awesome tanks!Your grandpa is the coolest!:headbang2

Its even better he is giving you the tools,I hope you plan to study his filtration systems and pick his brain as much as possible.That kind of knowledge should be saved and built on.

I would love the opportunity to learn from him about the excellent craftsmanship! I could spend a couple of years learning and never know as much as he knows in his smallest finger!

Ahhhh, such stuff is what dreams are made of. . . . . . .

I was very lucky, my family supported my habit when i was younger, but they are not in to tanks, now you.... you are a very lucky person, i wish i could have had someone teach me the tricks. Now my best friend and i are doing a lot of experiments. I can not get over how lucky you were able to have someone like him in your life. I wish i was able to shake his hand and tell him how amazing his stuff is still today!
