Thanks Cory, now I just have to wait and plan it out. Ill take my time so there won't be any hic-ups!. I may try to make one smaller just to make sure it works right then I can spend the money on these to make it large scale.

so if some one was to look for these were they live, were would be a good place to start looking and what would would you call these totes? are they a food grade tote? what do they normally use them for? LOL sorry for all the questions I just got an idea in my head and I'm soooo wanting one or two of these now.

thank you so much for the advice, I do have a couple of Yo Yo's but they are small yet and now that I get this bruiser home.... he'd take em out fast! I see why he only had him in this tank alone LOL he's a brute!

Im super excited to see this completed. Im stoked for you Cory! Bob, well your just bob LOL naw man your a great guy for helping ya buddy like that. Not to many guys would do that.

were can I get that egg crate stuff? that's a good Idea. I've been reading a bit too they love to dig it seems. I stil ltrust people here more than just any joe shmoo on the internet. thank you for that btw, I did 18 years in the Army when I got out. it was the best 18 years of my life to be honest. I did it all for good people like yourself. I sure do miss it though .

This is My Bandit (he stole my heart) I totaled my Harley back in April of 2016. I was laid up for a long time. I couldn't walk for 2 years. I had 4 surgeries in less that a year to put my leg back together. I lived alone, so I found Bandit on Facebook. I had a friend (now my better half) go pick him up for me. He wouldn't leave my side. still to day he don't leave me. He's on my lap as I type this LOL he's truly my best buddy. I've had lots of Hunting Dogs growing up but this lil guy is amazing and his heart is bigger than a Rottweiler. He's a Chiweenie that thinks he's a Rottweiler HAHAHA. I'm still trying to find a Army dog collar for him so any one that knows were to find one let me know PLEASE .

well thank you again, the Only Cichlid I've ever had was a pair of Oscars back when I was in the Army. to bad I was deployed for most of that time but I did give them to a civilian friend of mine when I PCSed (change of duty station) they lived another 8 years with him and they were HUGE hahaha. You mentioned egg crate, what did you mean?

Wow that's awesome. So here's a question for you. What to use for a clean up crew? Cory cats ? Snails? I'm trying to plan ahead and have stuff all ready. I have Cory's and snails. I know Shrimp are out of the question. I couldn't do that to my shrimp any way. I do believe he'll be all by himself a while until I get a 55 or bigger. and I think I want to go with a more natural tank wish a sand substrate with some hard scape n plants.

you bet I"ll post some once I get him all set up. I cant wait Im pretty excited. should be an interesting adventure

well hey Thanks for the advice, I didn't want the fish goin just any were and he trusted me enough to take care of the fish. I'm a sucker for a animal or fish in need of a home LOL I got enough Tanks as it is, my Girl is about to shoot me HAHAHA. I'm a huge fan of Xtreme foods as well.

Wow, thats beautiful and Congrats. The bar is awesome, lots of room for Pumpkin Pies n Diet Cokes! I cant wait till its all done again amazing place very blessed to say the least!

I was given a 20 Gallon Tank, fully furnished and an extra Marineland filter (new), stan, hood n light, water pre, that was nice, and of course the Bumblebee Cichlid. he tells me that the fish eats like a beast, so he or she is healthy ( I haven't seen em yet I pick em up Thursday) I've had Oscars in the past n that's about as close as I've gotten to a bumblebee. any help or advice would be great. #1 I know 40 gal or bigger but anything else? I'm not so sure what to expect, I know I could go on line n read all kinds of stuff but do I really trust that.... no not really. Id rather get advice from a source I trust.....You guys! hehehe Oh yeah I got it all FREE too. I went to physical Therapy and I always talk about my fish and were I get my things from. Well my Therapist asked me if I had room for one more fish...... Of course I said yes HAHAHA. Anyway he messaged me today and sent me pictures of everything......would you believe its almost new. he wants to get with me on Thursday and Ill bring em home. so all the advice is welcome and thank you all in advance. Many Blessings and please stay safe. Chuck
