A day off work.
« on: November 03, 2013, 07:45:29 AM »
I took a day off work in the summer just for the hell of it and this is what I built.



I basically built it out of the left over wood from my last racks.  I used 4x4 because that's what I had and then secured it with 2x4 really simple way over built.



I skinned it with some cheap wood I had lying around and stained it, I then picked up a piece of chalk board and hung it on the front, it is a little lope sided but I couldn't get it off,also he lost his pants some where.



I just put it in the corner and filled it up used an old filter, its a standard 29g much more manage in the living room.  Also if you walked into my house it would look like I am a normal person with a single small aquarium.



This is the young pair of super reds I decided to go with the male is quality and very red, I hope with a little conditioning and good water quality the female will get some more red to her as well.  That's when I first dropped them so there colors are not full there.  I still wouldn't consider super reds although that's what most people call super reds.

How does the dog make you lose your pants? Nevermind, on second thought some things are better left unsaid.
I have about 18,000 rounds of .223 I'm  looking to get rid of, 100 rd bags. 1-4 bags $40 ea, 5-9 bags $38 ea, 10 or more bags $35 ea. I can't put this in the for sale section, its not fish related. No shipping.
