    John walking up on me and Jamie tag-teaming the tank lids. Getting the piece of plastic on the glass edge was an exercise in futility. Having one person hold the plastic in place while the other one guided the plastic onto the edge worked really well.

    This image concluded the work done Wednesday. The stands and tanks are in position with the tanks filled with water and had heaters and air going. Basically ready for fish.

    That is a super cute picture of Fred.

    You guys just never caught on to the proper technique of installing those plastic strips. I did 4 of them in the wee hours of Thursday morning, after I found the final box of them, in no time at all. Guess I'll have to put myself on that detail next time around.
