I picked up this rack last night (the one on the left)

6x 3x18x18's

So after getting home late last night I decided to leave it on the truck and start to play around with it this morning.

I decided I wanted to repaint the stand after having a good look over it, it needs to be sandblasted, repaired, primed & repainted.

Its not in the best shape :(

Luckily I have access to the necessary tools at work to get the job done & a mintox boiler maker :) 

 

After dropping the truck at work along with the stand it was off to the pet shop to grab these little beauties

Grabbed 6 of them, They are bloody quick!!!

For those who didn't see the other thread, they are Aristochromis christyi - Malawi Hawk.

 

Anyhoo after the shop I headed home to mess around with the tanks.

To start with I had to scrape all the old paint off, Lovely job when its household paint and has been on there for years.

After a few hours I finally got them done.

And started painting some of them. Two of them have blue contact on the back. They will be the centre tanks.

The outer tanks have the backs and one side (End) painted black.

Tomorrow is clean up and have them ready for when the stand returns.

I will update the thread again once I have everything in place.
