I just drew up some plans on AutoCad for a 125 gallon stand I'm about to build, I'll send em to you if you have a way to open them (which means you'll need access to AutoCad, I know its probably a long shot, but I thought I would offer)

If I have someone with Autocad, can they change it to a PDF file or something else viewable. If you wouldn't mind go ahead and send it to me at kfowler@fwforestry.com . I have someone that I know has the program.
Thanks!!!!!!

I do AutoCAD work part time (I'm in college at the moment) and I dont' think there is an efficient way to convert it to anything viewable without an AutoDesk program, but to be honest I have never tried. I'll send it to you when I get home tonight and you can try it, if not I'm sure your friend can print it out for you.

Glenwood mall? You mean Crabtree?
Anyway I like FishWorld on Capital. They are kinda expensive for dry goods (get those online anyway, for the most part), but their fish almost always look real healthy. Fish Pros on Hillsborough is good too for their livestock selection, but I sometimes question their care for the animals, have seen some that look sick from time to time, but overall pretty good. A lot of nice people at both these stores.

Give me till tomorrow and I'll put some dimensions on it for you and send it to you then. I kinda stopped drawing it when I was about 90% done. This'll be good for me though, it will make me finalize my own plans.:D

Yeah Crabtree. I've only been here since February so I'm still trying to get to know the area. I'm looking at either a 90 or a 125 gal reef. The size will depend on how much room I'll have in the den. My wife and I are building out in Wake Forest so we're going to have to wait and see where everything will fit. Thanks for teh plans!!!!!
 
hey Kevin
where do you live in wake forest? I just moved from there...I took a job at a camp in lynchburg. I thought I was the only one in the area who like saltwater fish, everyone stared at my apartment at night because my window always glowed a bright blue color and everyone wondered what it was :)
I too have to agree with tucker... fish world is the best in the area, their fish always look so healthy and those guys really know there stuff. I have beem to a lot of fish stores and there's is one of the best!

Hey Sean. We're building in the new Heritage area. Just east of 1A. I like the guys a lot at Fish World but there prices seem pretty high to me.
BTW, my wife's grandparents live in Roanoke. We're headed there for Thanksgiving.

There prices are high, but for quality fish I don't mind paying a slight premium. As for dry goods, as I said I would normally go elsewhere. Ironically, I just bought my new 125 from them a week ago cause they were having a huge sale.

What you can do also is get the drawing on your screen and do a ctrl+pintscreen and paste into a word doc. and email that. I work with autocad 2000...
