Not nice to torture us like this Alan! Can't wait to see these pics!
 
What a wait, I have just heard from Glynn that he has a CD ready with about 38 pics of the build, i will be collecting tomorrow so hopefully we will be able to get this kicked off by the week end.
 
LOL, careful now i could end up posting a pic every week.
Well lets get serious, this is the end of an era and the shutting down of one of our countries premier tanks. I suppoe all good things come to an end sooner or later. In this case not too serious as Glynn moved on to bigger and better things, but i still remember the day DR and myself went to view this system and stood there in absolute awe at what we looking at.
Well here is the farewell to this system :wave2:

looks very different to the system in the begining of the thread.

Now of course when you moving tanks you need a holding area for live stock, but this must have been a real challenge for a system this size and the time span, which was a good few months before the next system was ready.

Unfortunately Glynn did loose a fair amount of live stock during this time and quite a few fish did jump out of the ponds. As with all of us it normally are the expensive rare fish that always seem to do this.
