Today was the day. I went and picked up my 125 Gallon tank and stand(took 2 trips in my blazer) plus about $500 worth of stuff from big al's came via UPS today.
Just spent a few hours washing sand.
My buddy bailed on me who was supposed to help me carry the tank inside. I wound up having to wrestle a 125Gallon 6 foot tank into the house on my own (NOT FUN!!!!) getting it up onto the stand was the worst though I thought I was gonna hurt myself it was so heavy. But Got it up there on the stand. Might I add it looks WAY bigger in my house then in the store.
Got all the sand in there and had JUST barely enough. Ihad some sand leftover from other tanks but was only able to get 36lbs of playsand from wal-mart which admittedly is very nice fine very white sand.
Python is in the tank now starting the long process of fillig the tank.
Might I add that today is my first time using a python and I can't imagine not having one now. They are great and best of all mine came upgraded with the brass fitting.
