milky Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 thanks guys, ill update this post as it comes together. it has taken 3 months to get this far with 2 of us working on it in our spare time aswell as being employed elsewhere full time.. the 4 foot stands are made from 40mm box tubing that is 2mm thick which is a bit overkill but oh well better to be safe than sorry and the 8 foot stands are made from 50mm box tubing thats 3mm thick overkill again. but yeah thanks again for the comments.

kilroy Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Nice work, looks like lots of work there for you once its all up and running. Have you insulated the shed at all? I know you don't get really cold winters up there, but the summers are hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D6C1 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Looking good. Keep us updated as it comes along! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milky Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 nah no insulation.. the warehouse is actually quite cool at the moment its 35 outside but around 27-28 inside and the tanks are sitting on 26. the people next door say that theyre warehouse is warm through winter but ill just have to wait and see how it goes. if it gets cold i will probably just use an oil heater.

parkesg Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Very nice setup mate, those large 1000L tubs - are they all contected through the one sump for the fry system? Do you use these to grow out fry and do you do water chages through them? Great idea.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
