Motivated or what--The rebuild of the 300

**Poseidon** · 12-30-2007 08:03 PM

Great news Charlie! I think Lorie should fire that camera up, post it to Utube and we can all sit back and laugh.... I mean wonder at the genius before us!

**charlie** · 12-30-2007 08:14 PM

Probably more like a bad 3 Stooges movie.

Come onnnnn...you gotta video tape it for all of us that can't make it. If I could drive up from Vegas to see it, I'd be there. Hehehe...

You could always edit the tape and put the "beeps" in there for the expletives. LOL!!!

Let me get this right, you guys want me to video tape all my screw ups????????????? I'll see what she says.

I know there will be pictures.

Speaking of Vegas, I'll be down there for the Nascar race in March, you gonna be around?

**SouthBayPhoto** · 12-31-2007 08:10 PM

Of course I want to see the screw ups...this way I'll know what NOT to do.

;)

Just kiddin'.

Yup, I do believe I'll be going to that race if I'm not already there shooting it.

So, how is it going so far, Charlie? Don't keep us pulling out whatever hair we have left, waiting for the news...

Is she running?

**charlie** · 01-05-2008 07:07 PM

Well.................... the water is only 3" deep in the basement, butthe fish are OK, they are still swimming and breathing.

No, seriously, things are going good. Both closed loops are plumbed, the fish are in the fuge, and lorie says dinner is an hour away. We have been at this since 8AM, with a few breaks. A little longer than I thought, but that is fine, the fish are good to go.
The tank is aquascaped, and about 1/2 full. That is it for now, we have pics of it all.

**Poseidon** · 01-05-2008 07:24 PM

YAY!!!!! Way to go Charlie! I finally got the last piece for my Ca reactor last night, and it is up and running. I'll update my thread after I take a few pictures.

**SouthBayPhoto** · 01-05-2008 07:38 PM

Where the heck is the video? LOL

It'll be great to see the pics later. I was so busy trying to set up my plumbing that I forgot today was the day.

LOL

**charlie** · 01-05-2008 08:39 PM

Working on the sump, skimmer , and main return now!! Later folks, thanx for your replies and stuff. Crown Royal forever!!!

**Poseidon** · 01-05-2008 09:21 PM

Hey that is the Good Stuff!

Remember to PRIME first, then glue the PVC.... Oh, and you better not sniff that purple primer, it may not mix well with the CR.

Just wanted to let you guys know that I am still alive......... barely!!!!! It is done except for the refugium, which I believe I am going to take offline for a while. I t may have to be moved a bit to make a little more room.
I have a question for you all, do you think I might be able to get away with a smaller fuge, 75 gallons now? I was thinking maybe a 40, what do you think?

**Poseidon** · 01-06-2008 01:09 PM

Where are the PICTURES?

As for the fuge, yes I think you will be just fine with a smaller one.

Yes, there ar epics, I just haven't had time to edit (

) them yet. I am still dealing with the mess that was created by the 5 of us. I have pvc parts laying around that I didn't even know I had.

I hope to get them up later today, but I have to clean the crap up first.

**Poseidon** · 01-06-2008 01:30 PM

I know that feeling! I put all my PVC parts in a bucket yesterday, I have a FULL Instant Ocean bucket, all PVC parts! How does that happen???

**charlie** · 01-06-2008 01:39 PM

Yeah, but if you don't have 'em, you are running to the store atleast 3 times because you don't have what you need. We had to go to the store only once for PVC parts yesterday, I was amazed!!!!
