I need a bigger house!

I plan on using this out outside. They hate the 100 gallon stock tank, so I think more space would help them get used to it. How did you bring it home?

[Kansasslider]

mine fit in my truck with some straps. What size are you getting?

[steve]

I'm leaning towards a 300 right now. It would be easier to divide since I have to keep my RES separate.

[Kansasslider]

it should fit in any full size truck bed.

[steve]

Hmmm, gonna be tricky on a motorcycle.

[Kansasslider]

you need a real big side car! Update" Gold fish are all still alive and building the tank stand Saturday.Splicing the FX hose was a bit tricky because the hose is metric.

[Kansasslider]

Got it done though!

[steve]

Nice! Will need new pics. Crazy enough, I've seen people use trailers on motorcycles.

[Kansasslider]

pictures tomorrow I'm tired that was a full day job.

Used 4 2x8x10' and a sheet of 5/8 osb board to build the 8" stand.Also added a maxi jet 1200 circulation pulp. $17.99 at Amazon. The pump pushes a lot of water and is working great keeping waste from settling on bottom of the tank.

[steve]

I like it! Keep up the good work.

good stuff kansas. Are you planning on adding more turtles later? Also I see another rubber maid tank, what's in there?

[Kansasslider]

No more turtles for now? The stock tank was used for fish bait years ago. Just used it to hold water during the build.Thanks its fun and a lot of work.But its looking BA!!!!
