My new aquarium and canopy came in at the end of last week, which was definitely good news. Joy went and picked them up for me while I was at work. She had to borrow my mom’s car because it’s quite a bit bigger than either of ours, and then she was still barely able to fit the tank in the back seat. All along we had been planning to put the tank along the far wall in our dining room, but once it got here, we spent a good portion of the weekend trying it out all over the place just to make sure that’s where we really wanted it. Once you fill a tank with water, you really don’t want to have to drain it to move it, so we just wanted to be completely sure we picked the best possible spot. And it looks like we were right all along because in the end, it’s on the far wall in the dining room where we were planning on putting it from the beginning. But at least now we know for sure.
It really looks nice!!! I can’t wait to see it with water and fish! :) :) Love you! Mom

I personally can’t wait to see the lighting system!!! My rock is getting more purple, but on the flip side… more green as well (c’mon snails! do your little jobs!).
Joy is the full on BOMB for picking that up for you! As many times as I’ve had to move around tanks, having someone move one FOR me would be totally righty-o in my book. ;)
