Day 230

Spent an hour or so cleaning out all old silicone from inside of 220gal., and cleaning glass with razor blade. This tank does not need to be totally disassembled because replacement panel sits on top of bottom glass and butts up to side glass. If side panel or bottom are broke, tank has to be taken completely apart. Also if you have a leak and can't find where its leaking from, disassemble. Need to order replacement panel, 1/2" glass 72 1/4"X29"...$130, considering having that piece drilled so I can hook up to central filtration system. Drained water from 140gal, its water tight. I need to neutralize new silicone with white vinegar, black out background, then figure out where to put it. Two Marineland replacement heaters arrived today, and they were 400W. They went in tank#13(380gal.) and tank#17(180gal.), tank# 17's heater went into tank#8. Two Stealth heaters in box for return, two more heaters should be on the way.
