High School 260gal tank rebuild

[DRThompson]

Looking for help/donations with South Plantation High School 260gal tank rebuild. As many of you know this high school is where most of our monthly meetings are held. It's also where we hold our annual Fragswap.

This 260gal display tank can be viewed by all students and is located in the main hallway of South Plantation High School magnet program. Florida Marine Aquarium Society is sponsoring the rebuild of a 260gal saltwater Reef Tank and is looking for donations.

Here's a pic of the tank taken about 2 years ago.

The tank is currently empty and much of the equipment is in need of repair or replacement.

The High School magnet program does not have the funds to rebuild this tank and we are raising funds thru a gofundme and asking members to help out.

Please let me know if you are willing to donate.

Last week we moved the tank to Matt's house to repair the acrylic. Special Thanks to Matt, Hernando, Shane from 247aquariums and Harold from Blue Dream Aquatics for all your help with the move.

Matt and I....mostly Matt removed the scratches and polished the 260gal acrylic tank back to clear.
