I'm back with a new hobby

Wow I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted here. I've decided to bring this back since I now have a bit more free time.
So I have developed a new hobby - Fish tanks. It started when I was young and got a gold fish tank. Then last year I got a fighting fish for work and kept upgrading his tank. Eventually I got a Freshwater tank and now I'm starting a marine.

SATURDAY



Spent the day cleaning the tank which I got second hand with the stand. 6 X 2 X 1.5 ft tank(!)



The cat didn't approve of all the water flowing in and out of the house and opted to stay on his post

SUNDAY

On Sunday, Alan and I dropped by Beach Aquariums in Bondi to grab some gear



The shop looks pretty old and tired but I managed to get a bunch of stuff at a bargain price!



Just half of the goodies I picked up from Beach Aquariums. Also went to Kim's to get a few things



Stopped by Justin and Christina's place to talk tanks but ended up just playing with their new kitten Mia.

MONDAY



Since I had Monday off, I wrestled my mate Jebus over to help me set up. Ended up setting up most of the sump



Now to find a way to hide this return hose

TUESDAY

I had class in the afternoon so didn't touch the tank. But since it was such a nice day we decided to give Miata a treat. He is generally not allowed out so when we want to let him get some sun we have to spend 10 minutes setting up an enclosure. Luckily he seemed to appreciate it:










My gorgeous puppy!
