Here we go again! Holedup82's 75 Gallon FOWLR to MR Build


Recommended Posts

Holedup, they did do thyroid testing on her to make sure her thyroid was ok?

They ran a full blood screen and organ function screening both came back normal. Thyroid in particular I'm not 100% sure as my gf who is in her 1st semester of vet school deals with the doctors. Unfortunately for 5 years banfield has been great, but this experience and one prior are making us look for another vet.

I know first hand (my cocker spaniel and my daughters cocker spaniel) decrease/void thyroid function will cause seizures.  If your g/f deals with the dr's and is in vet school, I bet they did test her thyroid function, but check to make sure.  Hate to see you waste money on a specialist if it's something a daily pill will stop.

So everybody is good now after our fun Tuesday night. So I got back to playing with the 75 The stand and sump are in place. Thinking I like the idea of having 3 compartments in the sump. The two outer compartments will be overflows from the tank one will have the skimmer, UV, and heater(s), the other will be for macroalgae. The middle compartment would be the return. I hung a par38 for the sump, and played around with cutting some glass today, old glass from picture frames are way too thin/fragile to cut consistently. I'll probably pick up some glass from HD or Lowes tomorrow. Next purchase planned is two 700 gph overflow kits from Glass-holes. I am thinking about putting one on each side of the back panel, and drilling a return to the center with a lockline split. Any opinions/advice?
