Don't know why, but tonight I decided to move the massive fish tank out of the shed to give me another wall for the mantids, starting to wish I hadn't as I've had to move most of the stuff out to clear a pathway, not even started with the tank yet, I can forsee a late night coming, be well worth it in the end tho

All moved now, and got loads more space, it's a 60"x24"x18" and a right bugger it was to move.
Looking back at the pics I took the shed looks so empty, at the time I thought it was pretty full
