Well this past weekend was the big tank switch..so on Fri I got all the fish moved to temp quarters,drained the water into holding tanks and moved the plastic 55's out of the way to make room for the new 125's...Sun the rest of the "possie" was coming over to help me,read that do all the heavy stuff....
Well any one knowing me,knows that I usually can't wait....so on Sat I grabbed a couple of my neighbors and we set up two of the tanks,just to make Sun an easier day...
Boy do those new tank with fish in them look sweet,I swear the fish look a lot better in the new digs..
So Sun morning gets here and Glenn Gary and Aran,who just got off one of his 27 hr shifts..he is playing at becoming a Doctor..oh where oh where is Steve?????????? We it took all of 10 min to get the other three tanks in place...and who walks in all ready to do the heavy stuff...just as we git the last tank in place...the biggest guy on the team...Steve....well he did good at advising us as to which fish should be placed in each tank LOL
Today is Mon morning and the tanks are up,the fish are in thier new homes and looking great...and yea I did take pics,now all I have to do is figure out how to size them and the post them...so don't hold your breaths,I am not real handy at the posting pics thing...I can take them ok and print them out,but the sizing and posting thingie has got me baffeled.....
I do want to thank all my fish "buds" for all the help,cuz without them the tanks would still be sitting in thier boxes....
Oh yea now I have a lot of "extra" tank space...which the bride noticed right away...so she says to me.." just because you have extra room,don't even think about getting more fish"...so I says to her" Gee dear,I wish you would have said that to me a week or so ago,cuz I already ordered some"!
I still can't get over how good the fish look swimming around in the larger tanks....Of course the guys are now taking bets to see how long it takes me to get rid of the other tanks and go to all 125's...Himmmmm now that is a good idea...
Pics will follow...I hope
