That's awesome news! I've been following the updates all day and I must say, the tank looks excellent.

A little bad news. A little while after I filled the tank to above the window I noticed a tiny bit of moisture on the floor in front of the window. Wife and I watched a movie (Avatar) and fell asleep on the sofa. The dvd went back to the menu and the repetitive theme song woke me up a few minutes ago. I went to check on the tank and found some water on the floor; about enough to fill a beach towel. Drained tank down to the 7:00 mark (about a foot down from the top of the window) to see if that slows or stops it.
I just had to open my mouth too early and jinx it didn't I? :lipssealedsmilie::lipssealedsmilie::lipssealedsmilie:
Hopefully it's something easy to spot. Good luck Pete!

Seems that it stopped after bringing it down to the 7:00 mark. Going to talk to Ken and see what he thinks later today.
It did stop. My wife thinks we missed something up near the top of the window. For me, the fact that we resolved the original leak is a big deal. The tank has never been filled above the 7:00 level before, so I don't know if this has always existed or not. I told my wife that I'm ready to hang a curtain across the part where there isn't water and be done with it. She said no and that it has to be filled up.
Who needs TV? Thanks for the entertainment guys. Took me about thirty five minutes to read the post but well worth it. Good luck on the tank looks AMAZING so far. Just a question though, all these people with all these animals...........anyone wan't some pygmy goats to torture and harass your dogs?
Oh I also was curious about the lake (or coast line not sure) you live near in those pictures?........looks incredibly beautiful there, now I want to move! The company I work for is transfering me and I have 3 locations to choose from, shreveport LA, eugene OR, or Kansas City, KS.
That's at my friend's house in a gated community on Lake Ramsey between Covington, LA and Folsom, LA. I've been wanting to move there myself, but it's pricey.
Funny you mention pygmy goats. My wife was talking about getting one. There were 2 different ads giving them away. How big do they actually get? I keep reading 40-60 pounds, but compact 18-23" at withers.
