Worked on the spot the new tank is going today... definitely not easy to Sheetrock with two tanks in the way but got it done with a little bit of bending and the help from wifey I want to try and get it painted before the 125g goes in that spot because I don’t plan on moving that for a long time

I always get SOOOO nervous doing work around the tank. No idea the impacts of the material we use to work on our house getting into the tank!

I know I was thinking the same thing I just used a wet sponge on the joint compound no sanding dust that way

I was able to get one coat of paint on yesterday need to do some fine touch ups and then re coat it’s a light gray
