Hey mate just wanted to say this tank was probably one of the main builds that got me inspired and I have now started my build.

You won't believe the odds of what happened to me either regarding pond shield. I responded to an add in the paper for limestone blocks for the pond I'm building and by chance the guy was on the phone to Butch when I got there and is becoming a distributor for pond shield and he was in my own suburb. To cut a long story short I'm not paying shipping costs!! needless to say I'm over the moon

Cheers!

Yeah the Gourami has powered on!!!

I wish I had brought 2 or 3 when I got her.

Mate as far as the log it was only a week or so ago I took off the last rock so at least 5-6 months

This will be it for awhile. There are fish in the tank that I consider lifers and others that are fillers lol

Nice Tank M8. I envy the room you have to accumplish such a dream. I am originally from SA where i would have done something to that extreme. But now i am in the UK and if i could get anything bigger than my 4x2x2 i would be well chuffed. I did manage a 7x2x2 but the wife kicked it out within 2wks. Didnt even get the fish in yet. I dont blame her it did look enormous in this shoe box of a house.
