can you hear that the generator's not running that's because the power's back on power came
back on last night and today I immediately went back to work Pond is mostly saved the
tree's gone I cut it up tossed it back there once the power came back on it also started raining
see that little hole water was like I could say pissing right it was pissing out of that
but the leak was up top now I don't know if I'm gonna be able to see but maybe you will but you
can see right here where the shingles are a little shoddy that's where I replaced them but then I
decided I'm so far behind on what I really want to do which is renovate this room you can kind of see
I was gonna show you try to see how far along I've gotten already
foreign
the wall is up this is a basic 2x4 wall and then I put in these panels here just like this
these here these are just MDF panels um they're The Identical ones that are back there and I just
continued to wrap it here um and then this door this door is definitely got to be my favorite
thing it's a sliding door a lot of people said do a pocket door I didn't want to because a pocket
door would have been far more difficult to create the wall would have had been a slightly thicker
and I don't want to lose any more space but this is awesome now wait oh wait wait wait wait wait
what's this watch this watch this so this took me forever to balance it perfectly so that the door
closes on its own it's not supposed to do that you're supposed to put it on level
I didn't want to I thought that was way cooler and the reason being is because
um it's easy to open but if I ever want it to stay open and circulate air whatever I
just put the like something down there type of deal hold it open I'll probably
just put like a door stopper I don't know what I'll do but it's pretty cool right
I also thought these little Windows here were pretty awesome um and now you might be worrying
about cutting off this building and circulation and whatnot and I'm going to show you a few things
see this little hole right here in the wall that is uh the air exchanger which circulates 2500
square feet uh uh per hour I think it is and this is only 500 the entire building out here
so it's sucking air from or it's blowing fresh air in here and sucking it from the other side
there's also and one thing you guys aren't going to notice and I don't even know if I want to point
it out because now you'll always look at it but there's also another place of extreme circulation
I'll show you where it is but you can never talk about it ever again underneath the floor
um I cut the panels a little bit just to uh have that circulation under there as well all fish
survived every single one of them the piranha tank is just absolutely phenomenal too a hungry
Bunch they are and we're gonna have to feed them probably in one of the next videos but for right
now um I'm just kind of running you guys through this I might feed them tonight I gotta build
280 gallon stands next but uh yeah look at these guys just absolutely phenomenal they all did fine
power outage wasn't that bad my water quality is better than when it started one week without power
I fed them once during that week and that was it I fed everybody once and the smaller fish ate twice
but uh no problems whatsoever so now that this room is completely wide open I'll see if I can
kind of illustrate oh and right here I got too many I should have put it on a tripod I can
walk through here easily and I'm thinking about putting food storage back here like a big rack
of food storage possibly but now that we have this this area wide open I might be putting
the fridge back out here I don't think so but I do want a flat bench right here in front of the
tank and I kind of only want like plants like like Lush plants like I want this to feel like
an experience you're looking at a white wall but when I'm looking at it like when I'm sitting here
I want it to be an experience a plant a tank piranha tank all these plants up here as we
travel into here we don't have much time obviously um these stands got to get lowered I'm going to
wrap them and paint them in black stuff like this again it's relatively close to this wall
but not that bad from floor to ceiling though is going to from here all the way to the new wall
will be all plants uh I don't know where this is going to go but it's empty right now so it's
likely just going to go back in my utility room um these 180s I got to build a stand that goes here
and here well we'll get to that here eventually Archer fish are doing good and of course the
2000 everybody is just fine didn't lose a single fish but of course didn't lose uh
pumping power either I just have a tremendous amount of hungry fish that really want to eat
surprisingly enough the Asian arowana did not go after everybody expressing its anger and hunger
towards anyone but they're all doing fine oh and I did this wall too but it's built weird
and things weren't like lining up properly so I just kind of put the panels on it or whatever
but uh yeah it's pretty awesome I don't know if I want to put a door handle on this door I
kind of want to have people come in here and feel trapped like they can never leave and the only way
to get out is you kind of gotta go whoop isn't that awesome I love it I love it now I did get
the worry that these areas um are going to you know limit circulation I just have to you know
create methods of circulation you can always figure things out especially it's
only 550 square feet it's not that big of a deal um because I hate the building
not the aquariums but maybe I should start hating the aquarium school at down out here
but with this room and the wall being back up it kind of feels small in here
but not that much it's not that bad oh and this is the uh the power breaker um
so walls are painted floors painted this is done I can move on man it just looks so cool out here
like really awesome you guys give a better look ah damn it I gotta hold it
um but yeah I thought it was gonna feel small but it's just like I kind of want to have like
um maybe I wanna I wanna be able to have coffee out here sit here and I might just do two bigger
chairs but I think a bench would probably be best because I could just move a bench out of
the way so much easier and I'll build the bench probably I'd like reclaimed wood or something
um and on those panels I have no idea what I'm gonna do with them I don't know if they'll go
on the other wall I'm kind of thinking maybe they should but I don't know just yet we'll
have to see what I actually end up coming up with but yeah this has just turned out
absolutely fantastic oh and another thing like see this corner over here
it's not finished up there I don't need to TVs are there but um that's like a past uh
power chords through it which I have to redo because they're all coming those hanging there
but I'll be able to hide power chords and every everything will be hidden back there at some point
but yeah this is gonna end up looking pretty cool um lots of natural light now watch this so this uh
window you're sitting in front of right now still lines up with that door this was the original
design but when I built this entire building and that lines up with that window down there
but that window's not going to be seen because there's going to be tanks in it here soon and
um but I guess you'll be able to see through the tank and see that window but it was for crosswind
and I actually never opened the windows a single time out here never needed to anyways I'm gonna
build those stands today big thing is uh clean up uh I got to get this yard back in order
um but uh that's we're at we're ending the month off like that which I'm excited about I wasn't
even gonna put this video out or even make a video for a few days but I kind of wanted to end the bit
the month off like I wanted to I wanted to take your guys Minds off the hurricane and the things
that we went through and you know some of the damages it seems like the town is like it never
happened man the Nova Scotia Power the people from the United States all over Canada came to help us
thank you so much you guys were awesome you did a fantastic job um and uh we're really grateful
yeah for those in Florida that are going through this now my heart is with you stay strong and
um if you wake up and you're still alive and not everybody you love is still alive it's not that
bad things can be replaced I know it's hard I know it's expensive I know you don't have the money I
life isn't easy but so long as those around you are still alive and and everybody's healthy and
safe let's start there all right hope you guys enjoyed the video see you next time
