I sit correct, and beg forgivness :-) Unfotuneatly.. WebTV has few options for it's users.... personally I never understood it's appeal, and saw it as a typical MS approach.... ignore standards, and try to force the world to their own standards... shrug Peace to you all, and thanks for all the wonderful advice and knowledge!!!!

... [ ...] Sorry for the delayed response. My usenet server was not working well. What sort of substrate are you using? I notice the river gravel on the top layer, is there flourite or anything else below it? The substrate is 100% fluorite, aprox. 2.5 inches deep. Below it, is glass . I am breaking down one of my 55's soon, to be replaced with a 220 and then will be moving that 'extra' 55 up to my bedroom... so I have some planning to do. Post links to your pics when done. 220, wow! you must be single or have a very loving wife . Nice chunk of drftwood by the way, from floridadriftwood.com? Two pieces set side by side to look like one piece. Mopani wood from SuperPet. |

Below it, is glass Hmmm... the Flourite looks lite in color... more like the river gravel I have in my tank... maybe it is just the lighting. I am breaking down one of my 55's soon, to be replaced with a 220 and then will be moving that 'extra' 55 up to my bedroom... so I have some planning to do. Post links to your pics when done. 220, wow! you must be single or have a very loving wife . We are both enraptured by our fish tanks... I am building a DIY wooden tank with glass on one end and the front. However, I have run into a problem with the floor in the living room. It is VERY solid, but the house was built over a 100 years ago with very green wood and now the floor sags in multiple directions. I have to figure out a way of leveling the stand on a very uneven floor, the farther out from the wall, the worse it gets. The tank that is in that position right now is on a Metal, 4 leg stand and three of the leggs are leveled up with pieces of wood that gets used to level a door. 3 pieces on one corner, two on one and one on the last corner... The tank is still not completely level, off by about 1/4 inch due to settling. I know I can't do that with a bigger tank. Too much weight to allow it to be non-level. So, I have to spend a large amount of money ripping up the floor, planeing down the joists and re-leveling it all. That is going to take most of the summer. Sucks... I had already built the stand before I found the problem was as bad as it is. Well, I call it a stand, it is actually a complete wall unit. streches from the corner to the doorway. 8.5 feet. Anyway... when I first attempted to place the unit in the room was when I found that the floor is shaped like a letter W both left to right, and front to back and drops by about 2.5 inches from wall to outside edge so a simple shim won't work and neither will those screw out leveling furniture 'feet'. The previous owner of the home had just replaced the carpet with a VERY deep pile, probably to hide the unlevel floors. Living room and Den have the same problem. Living room is where the big tank will go. The den has almost been completely converted to a Fish room... although I do I have my computer set up in there as well. 4 Tanks. 55, 2 X 29 and a 10 for isolation. Nice chunk of drftwood by the way, from floridadriftwood.com? Two pieces set side by side to look like one piece. Mopani wood from SuperPet. Wow... it looks like one continuous piece and is absolutely beautiful. I will be shopping for some very large pieces once I get the stand leveled out. |
