Few Updates.

Finally got around to upgrading air - got 2x Resun LP-1000 air pumps and installed a 40mm PVC loop around the room.

Reverse Cycle got installed so not more heating tanks :wacko:

Also received a group of WC Mobas and 10 F1 Mikulas

Now to add bracing to half the tanks and remove the dividers.

Started the plumbing and water tests everything seems to be behaving so far.

Added Texas pair and moved in my dolphin pair as the female was being harassed in the community tank.

Appreciate the offer 😄 solar is definitely something id consider. Still ways off adding water - progress feels like it has stalled abit.

Managed to prep another rack section this afternoon.

New member here so id like to firstly say Hi.

I'm currently converting my shed into a fish room as my house simply doesn't have the space.

Spent the last two weeks on and off around work and 4 kids and this is the progress so far.

Still got the power to be terminated, plastering/painting, air con to be installed and flooring to be sealed and then I can move in the racks approximate tank count 31 not including the planned 6x 6ft tanks.

Going to be a busy month.
