Day 232

Took apart light that came with 388gal., too bulky for me. Going to rebuild it and put on tank#17(180gal.), the light on that tank has three 175w metal halide bulbs, better for deeper tanks. This light will go on 388gal. because it's 40" deep. I have to install two fans in hood because of intense heat from bulbs. The plan to get the tank in the house is: trailer on to car lift, lift to level of pickup truck, slide tank on to pickup, pickup to back of house, slide tank from pickup bed to stand in house at walkout door, move stand with tank on it into place. This might all go down tomorrow. Change 25% water, vacuum gravel, and filter cleanings in tanks#17-#20.
