Nice DIY build. Of course now I'd like to see it with all the trim etc.. in place. :)

i was thinking that. i wouldnt have even considered filling/stocking without having the product finished. its a nice build, but if you cant decorate it nicely, whats the point? too mixed up of a tank too IMO

To be honest, I would not have it on a bet. I hate confetti tanks. All that work to have that jumble of inhabitants. Pity the fish!

No kidding. A huge nicely scaped tank for an mbu would be amazing. I really need to get on top of winning the lottery :lol:

The bow wave an T. mbu could and would throw up and out in that tank would be a disaster! NIMFT, thanks anyway.

...I just read this as "2700 Galleon tank."

I need to read less fanfiction.
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Found among the papers of Mohatma Gandhi

Just curious but if you were going to put a baby Mbu in there how would you do it? I mean once it's in there it would be a nightmare to feed wouldn't it what with the tank being so big. Would you have to start with a smaller tank first and get him used to feeding from you?
