MTS fix

My eagle-eyed Spanish co-worker spotted a 36" tank someone threw out with other household items. I just picked it up from her place tonight and assuming that it doesn't leak it will very likely become the new home for my Sewellia lineolata

I wanted to convert to a sand substrate as I wonder if the gravel in their tank is stopping any nest building. A big disturbance and a new setup might kick off some breeding activity. It worked with my P. cheni the first time they bred.

I'll switch over all the other decor, filters etc., so the tank is ready to roll straight away.......

......and post pics of course :wink:

Hehe! First test passed.

She no leak.

It's a 36"L x 12"W x 19" H........that's a 40 high right? Anyhow, a tad under 40USG.
