    Always love coming along for the ride as another new tank comes to life!
    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.

    gotta love the spray bar made one on my 55 and what a difference.

    couple questions though:
    don't you feel bad about abusing that poor pool table?
    and, i notice that the wall has fresh new white paint to accent the display tank but only painted where the tank is. wth? sounds like something i woulddo...who cares about the rest of the house as long as the tank looks good!

    greg97527 lol. i and the wife love the qusetions we lol our but off

    the room is now 3/4 painted and just so you all know all the paint on the floors in the room was already there when we tore up the carpit we were in aw... it looks like some one let a 2 yr old paint the roomwe need to still redo the wood floors ...ps. good eye

    as for the pool table we have two of them the one that is in the basement it the cheep one and was not that hard to move (not that hevie)(sp) the good one is in the gargage and it weighs 1200 lbs and i havent found enough people who wanted to help move it ....hehe

    the house was bought as a repo and took us 3 years to fix it right we are now working on the back yard and then the my bed room its last on the list just thought i would tell a little story lol hehe



    thanks for check out my thread there will be more to come!!!!!!!!!!
