Just thought, only the water weighs 350kg, then you got the actual tank and stand weight must be over 400, thats a lot o weight think im gona chance it

insurance company will pay out if it does go through the floor anyway I guess, never liked this house anyway

I was in a house with a 900L tank, home made. Had sharks, but they were kept in basins to stop them gowing, big tank was full of tidlers and I mean tiny. Would have taken a week to swim end to end. Lucky it was ground floor and concrete floors, guy was a nutter, ended up in Andrew Duncan clinic after flushing most of them down the toilet and smashing the tanks up

Thinking about it Dom, how the fook is that going to go up your stairs as it splits halfway up and goes back on itself, you re gonna need to remove the fookin roof just to get it in your room

Dom - If you want to goto East Harling during the week sometime give me a buzz....Been there before with Pete n know the way

Awesome place! Can spend far too much money in there though.......Looking at the marine set-ups make u want to buy one until you look at the price of the fookin fish and how much u have to look after them!

Still want my Tropical set-up + tank one day but the taxi keeps breaking

Just fill it a quarter of the way up, put some sand at one end and the fish will think they are paddling on the shore. Job done
