Moving on over to the Live side...

It's time to add to the arsenal. Bought all the components today and will put her together tomorrow. I hope it goes together soon. My 4year old thinks I am making an aquarium for her fishes.... Little does she know

Oh, and thank goodness I won't have to worry about the ants

Don't moralize her to bad when you say "Yes this is a fishy tank" and when you come home she sees the fishy tank full of big fishys and your cutting one up and eatting some sashimi!!!

Well, I don't know exactly wht the total cost was since I had some pieces and bought some pieces over a couple days. A basic breakdown is this:

Pet Food Storage (6.5 gal size) : $31
Bilge Pump $22
Pelican Dry Box: $20
6v 7a Battery: $21
2 90degree PVC elbows male & Female $4
2 1 1/2 PVC for outtake: $6
3/4 threaded pvc and cap for drain $3
Toggle Switch w/ waterproof boot $10
PVC Tubing $10
Extra Wire $6
Screws & O-Rings $10
plastic handle $2

I already had the Bilge, Battery,Handle and Switch plus some of the PVC so I am estimating those prices from when i got them a while back.

On quick estimation about $150 or so. I am sure I could have gone cheaper with a bucket and a cheaper dry box but I didn't

Add a couple hook rings so you can use something to secure it to the kayak, also I would suggest buying a plastic 3 rod holder and strapping it to your bait tank. Definetly is handy. Almost there...good luck

I am using a Pelican Micro Case 1060. It cost a little more than i wanted to spend, but it fit the battery i am using perfectly.
