Bit of TLC and elbow grease and you'll be well away.

well a rather large hurdle came over the last couple of days

tank leaks and is cracked on the front pane so it means that the tank is halted for the min :o

but some good new been offered a almost 5x2x2 cheaper than what it would cost for a new pannel :mellow:
