These 2 pics say it all for me....once more you made me laugh in disbelief! All air tools I presume? You really are mental! And I love you for it!
I just got my 100US Gallon tank, lid and diy stand in the living room and my fiancee thinks I'M nuts, so I just show her what YOU do for your fish.
THEN she understands!
Mine won't be filled til my ACL reconstruction mends....

I would be VERY surprised if that covered it. The windows alone were something like 2K each. Pumps heaters, concrete, sealing... Beer...
