Who needs a TV when you have a 350g tank to sit and watch all day! :ph34r

Better watch out Dan. If you get that thing looking as awesome as your cube then your going to have to host all the MAAST meetings.

As big as that tank is, we could hold a meeting inside it! Everyone bring a snorkle, mask and flippers! lol :)

I bet it's going to look awesome, can't imagine having a tank that big. Can't wait to see it, so many exciting new tank projects going on!

Dan, that's one hell of a sump :o :o :o :o :o :o

Is that a $100 bill sitting on top, guess that represents how much you spent on eggcrate for that "Beast" ;)

Guess I can't say I own "Dan's Beast" anymore! I think you have out done yourself 8) Can't wait to see it up close & personal ... does it have guard rails :)

been working on this since jan. at this rate it will be june before it's finish. a friend told me never put water in a system until your finished with all the extra thing that have to be done. once you have water and every thing in the tank you'll never finish the other stuff that needed to be done.

That's great. You going to put a ladder up so it's easier to get in and out. Maybe a dive platform?

Also, that's a very interesting point about waiting to put water in. I felt that if I put water and rock in I can leave that be while I do the other stuff, but your description is more likely. Especially with my philosophy of "Projects are meant to be started"

Very nice Dan! Your plumbing looks almost too good. Where in your house is this tank going? I just assumed that it was going in your fish room to replace your 240g cube. Are you keeping both?

Absolutely Neat-O! I asked my wife if we'd get the Fever so bad we'd be building extensions on to the house to accommodat tanks...she said she hopes not!

ps Hey how come I'm still a web member!:)
