New Tank Build...part 2

The past weekend was the big tank move. Monday was bank holiday, so I got a few friends over to help move the tank indoors. I stipped the old tank on Sunday & the new one took it's place Monday. It was a lot of hard work, but not as bad as I thought it would be. I have to admit, I think planning it all the best you can helps a lot.
All that is left for me to do is the final aquascaping & building a cover for the stand.

Last pic of the old tank...



Stipping the old tank...




Water going in...



New tank!!! The blue colour is due to the blue actinic lights beign on when I took the pictures. Watch this space for updated pics!...

And here's the tank on the stand. The back of the tank & the stand has been painted. We've also started to sort out the sump, plumbing & we're building a hood for the lights.

Tank Clips!

I decided to take a time-lapse clip of my tank.

Here is one where I've setup the video so that it records while the lights go off. Look at the leather on the left & the toadstool shrink!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEIsaF8B0Dk

The 2nd is one of the tank to see the activities of the inhabitants This one was taken over an hour:
