ok water going into the tank. its filling as I type this. I have a few little things to fix. Some leaks around the float switch fittings. Not a huge deal there. I am hoping to be adding salt by the end of day..... I even took the day off work to get caught up around the house.

Well Watching finding Nemo with my baby girl on my lap... Thank god for all of this. Life is good.

Also, I will have an Anemone, Should Iget a BTA or a Nice carpet. Never had a carpet and worried it may get too large and take up too much room. Any input would be great. thanks all.

You know how right that is. Glad to hear of your joy.

By the way, I have a carpet in mine for my percs and they love it. have it towards the top and luckily for me as my tank if 22", it has not gotten too big yet but they can always be removed if they do.

yea I have been looking at them online this morning. Well I have a little bit. But was just getting some ideas as I want to add it early on to let it find a location with very little damage.

the sump isnt quite done. I had to fix a few little plumbing issues with the ATO water change setup. Ill be putting it back together tomorrow.

salt is a little low yet. but bringing it up last check was 1.10. Added more and will check again in a hour before bed. Ill be letting it run through the night.

Looking good. Is the canopy completely closed or dose it have doors or access?

mojo · Jul 16, 2012

Its hinged on top. I routed out a spot for the light to sit. So it actually rests on top. It haw a grove it sits in

I added some sea chem stability yesterday. I also added 3 little blue chromis. The tank is running.and cycling. I still need to hook up the water change and ato . Maybe tonight. its all new so I need to just give it time.

Indo scoly so fast into a brand new tank?

Glad to have seen this thread...interested to see what else you put in there.

Not sure if I like bare bottom - especially if you are going to have lots of LPS down there. I am waiting for you to turn me into a believer.

Everything else you have done looks slick.

How do you like the marcorock cement?
