Long long ago when i first came to this site i read a post about this guy that built this massive tank that went all the way through his living room and then into a room he had to build on the side of his house to contain all the equipment. Anyone know the thread im talking about. Ive tried searching but come up with nothing and i dont know why but it poped into my head this am and wondered how the tank has been.

thanks

I know what you are talking about. Pretty sure it was just a link to another site, so it's hard to search for. Hopefully someone else has better recollections.
im not sure but i recognise the tanks description, it could be on pfks website
hope this helps
No it wasnt that one. thanks though. i remember he spent all that time on it and then in the end people said it looked silly because he put in a sunken ship and other non plant items....


I think I found the thread that mentioned it: http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/lounge/19568-you-think-your-tank-poses-challenge.html

On the downside, seems like the thread at the originating forum is gone.

(I was searching for "sunken ship" and it came right up :tongue:)
NO get so close to it and its gone.. sad that was one heck of a large tank. imagine how many neons you could have in there or an army of RCS:tongue:

There are much bigger and better out there:)

I'm following the consruction of a 17,000 gallon reef right now built into a really nice home!
LOL. Not my home. Unfortunately murphy came knocking at my door and we need to sell the house and live cheaply for a while. To all the young people DON'T THINK IF YOU GET HURT AT WORK YOU WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF!!! But enough of that, onto the link:D

Enjoy. There's a whole list of massive tanks, the most famous being the 50,000 gallon.
Bills 17000 gallon tank will be very nice and I think a lot of people stand to learn a lot form him. Just be patient with his posts, his grammar to a little rough:D But he and Spazz make just about everything for the tank. If I recall they were the first one's to make a sequence dart into a NW and thus, huge skimmers running at under 100 watts.

Oh well, enjoy!

Wow. Sorry to hear that Hop. Isn't there something like disability insurance supposedly kicking in? Hope things turn to the better for you.

Thanks for the link. That is one monster project...
It a cool project! Thanks for the support and I suggest every one here get additional disability insurance or aflac or what ever... Be prepared. ADA only protects you for 6 months and then you can be terminated for inability to do the job. Then you need an attorney to keep the dissability claim open so that you can get the additional surgeries you require to get back to normal. It's a joke. I wish I had really looked into it before I got hurt!

But yeah, Bill's tank is incredible. PLus you will see the cars he bought for himself for Christmas:D
