7 ft., 210 galon tank!

[rich_one]

So, I acquired this a week ago (thanks for the heads up AND the assist, tparker... you really should come to a meeting and join the club, if possible... you are a true asset to this hobby, and genuine good guy!). Had to rebuild the stand, and it is now much stronger than when I got it. Adding some bulkheads to seal off the holes drilled into the built-in overflows. But then comes the fun part... what put in it? LOL...

I have a sizable vieja collection split between my 125s. Somewhat thinking of combing them in this tank, then using my 125s for specific projects like keeping bonded pairs and such. Of course, I could always just try something complely new instead! Decisions, decisions... I LOVE this hobby!

Pics coming soon...
