My 3665 Gallon Lined Plywood Tank Build Log

[Luc]

Glad I live in Thailand.
You buy something like that, they will deliver it exactly where you want it...That includes 5 flights of stairs if you'd want to, just hand out 20 Dollar to share between the human trollies and have a sixpack of beer handy afterwards. ;-p
Then again, you're not in Thailand Pete, good luck, will keep my fingers crossed on this most crucial part of the operation. Cheers.

Found a place locally that will match the price I have from the other place. Just have to see if it includes delivery.

Lots of progress tonight. I'm going to take some pics tomorrow when there's daylight to light up the room.

Initial stock will be the 15 silver arowanas I'm currently growing out and some other fish that I already have. I won't really know for certain until I'm done. The final stock will most likely be 7 of the group of arowanas, 3-5 azul pbass, and a breeding group of rays.

Wow looking sweet man, can't wait to see the business end of things start to take shape.

Pro.

Massive progress... looks like you'll have plenty to share at your upcoming meeting.

I'll be glad when I get the acrylic done. The rest is downhill from there. Still not sure I want to give up 300+ gallons for an internal sump, but that's not a decision I have to make right now.

If you haven't been following the thread, just to give you an idea of the sheer size the wall the front window shows through into the dining room is 11'4" long x 8' high. The hole is 45.75" x 93.75".
