T.I.B.E.T (The Incredibly Big Expensive Tank)

What really bugs me in that second photo is the lack of a ground wire! Something very necessary for safty, especially around salt water.

I know! I think we're settling on the idea that ALL the walls in the basement have to be removed and all the electrical re-run, even the stuff that isn't tank related. I was hoping that we could salvage SOMETHING of the original basement, but as you can see, it ain't happening.

I have however established an equation for renovations: budget + 50% mark up for product + additional food and beer consumption proportional to square footage of the area = real cost.

Sounds about right, my personal projects always take twice the money and 3 times the time I anticipate.

I would on the phone to Mike Holmes, lol, Thats the kinda stuff they find in all his reno's. man good thing a fire did'nt happen. Keep the piucs comming.
