Ken & Jen's 6ft (now incorparated into our 10ft)
Morning all,
This was the first tank we set up. Like this place so much we have decided to move all our TJ's into one spot. As usual with my camera operating skills I have buggered up the dates on some pics lol. Man's gotta have goal's in life, one of mine is to learn how to set the proper date and time on the camera!

Morning all,
No big blurb this time, just a few notes of interest here and there. Another diary of sorts for us to look back on and others who are interested. Some dates on some pics are wrong, setup was done in the 3rd month. I think from buying the tank to how it sits tonight took us 2 months, a few dollars, alot of luck, alot of kilometers and alot of phone calls. Alot of the photos where taken with my mobile so forgive the quality of some pics lol.
The 3 pics above are from Ebay of the tank as we picked it up.
Egg crate fills the bottom, skimmer setup as we got them, had to replace one return pump.
The ever trusty Beaurepaires ute!, can carry anything, at the moment it has 520Ltr's of salt water on its back. It knew it was there belive me, lowered and put that on, lol!
75Kg of marble chips, size= 00, filling the tank. (No need to tell the story about what happened while filling MickeyG!) :)
Live rock added the same night.
Live rock the next night after everything had settled.
