7.37am - just need to move the old empty tank and furniture.
The new tank will be here in less than 3 hours.
I had less than 6 hours sleep.

8.35am
The space is vacant and ready.
I decided that I won't be starting my set up today, just the preparation and checking everything.
I'll start first thing tomorrow, after a good nights sleep.
I may post some photos though

I need more tea.

Sounds like you need something other than tea to me

Hope it goes smoother now.

Any tips on how to convince the OH. I still don't have permission to use my old tank for another setup.

Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

10.46am
Just had the phone call, they will be here in about 10 minutes.

Just an afterthought, I want to paint the back ....

At least you have given yourself some time today to paint it now

11.56am Tank is now in

I'm going to take it easy today.
Take Gill out for lunch as she has been superb, I could not of done any of this without her.
(Where's the nearest burger van?)

Just 2 photos to start.

You can see a glimpse of the Roma 240.
As you will see I had a great deal (better than Seapets) on this 6x2x2 Aqua One Aquience 1800R.
2 x filters
4 x T5 24W + 4 x T5 39W tubes.

More to come ...

I've just popped in to register my excitement! Everyone budge over, please, so I can have a seat at the front.
