110 Gallon 6 foot Geophagus/Turtle Tank. VIDEO UPDATE DEC 2011 (p3)

[turtlez]

I picked up a 6 foot tank with unfinished wood stand and matching canopy. I have a lot of work to do and I thought I'd share ! Priming, painting, setup, stocking.
The idea is to move my Geos and my cooter turtle into the tank, as they have outgrown the 55 gallon.

I'll start by posting the original pic's, after I primed it and then setup.

Will post later with setup pics and stock and equipment list.

Hope you enjoy!

Original pics. I would have liked to keep it like this, but it didn't match the the room its going in..

Very nice, can't wait to see the finished setup What colour are you going to paint/stain it?

[turtlez]

All black but still keeping the wood texture and a grey/blue tint trim.

First time posting pics...just a question how do I post as full pictures within text rather than little thumbnails ? :P

[Keri]

Do you have a photobucket account? (or something similar?) Chose the tag that has [img] [/img] around it.

[turtlez]

I have flickr, but when I do the img thing I get a blank post!

[Keri]

I'm sorry I don't use flickr but maybe someone else can chime in?
