The room is roughly 30x40.

In total there are 28 racks, and 130+ tanks.

I am going to sell 16 of those racks, with the tanks.

I designed the racks, but had a company build them for me. I am NOT a welder. LOL

Same thing with the tanks.

Not even water yet, let alone any fish.  :-\

I am looking for a group of Yellow Labs now.

Any other time when I was NOT looking for yellow labs, they are everywhere. Now that I WANT some, I find them few and far between.  AND when I DO happen across them, getting them is another story.  Sometimes it feels like I am on the moon up here. :(

I figured I would start with the basics again, since I have been out of breeding for quite some time. That's one of the reasons for me being in the forums, to get some new ideas, and catch up on things.

Nice looking room!

Love the racks.  How much did those racks cost?

Thank you.

If I remember correctly, it was about $400 each, just for the metal racks. And that was quite a few years ago. I imagine they would cost much more to duplicate, at today's prices for material and labor. Same with the tanks.

I may list 16, complete racks, with the tanks, soon. I have 28, and I think It's just too many for me at this time, and what I think it is, what I want to do. But, my ideas keep changing.   ;D
