Begins AGAIN ?

What was your lead time on the tank? I’m thinking of getting one of these or the Red Sea 525 G2. 4-6 months is a long wait for the IM made to order tanks!

Your fish tank is fire. love the way it looks. I like that extra glass lips. It helps the water of splashing out.

Maybe I am going to fit all of the controller stuff, ca reactor, UV and sump. hopefully be ready next weekend or the following weekend to set tank on the stand pipe in and do a wet test with just water. I’ll then add sand fill halfway scape and finish filling. Then I will transfer fish. Hope to be up and running by mid Feb.

Got the stand built today. Dam this is big lol!

The Mrs. wanted some new shelving to tie the new tank into the room better. Therefore you buy and assemble new shelving It really does look better!

Happy wife, Happy'ish life!!!
