Of course I have room for 1 more fish!
Made a trip to Lowe’s today. Picked up everything I need to run 2, 15 amp gfi circuits for the system. Tomorrow will be installation day for that.
Also picked up 6’ of clear vinyl flex. Enough to make 2 return lines.

Wowzers. That's alot of travel and partying to get that bad boy with Marriott Points. Too bad they don't offer fish stuff...Since I have moved to an area where power outages and hurricanes happen, I used 285,000 Marriott Rewards points to get this:
I still have to do some final assembly, but at least it’s here. I was pretty happy to find out that this house is already setup for a whole house generator. Flip a switch, plug it in, and it will power up the main panel through a whole house surge protector as well.

Just curious, do you have a basement? I am setting up my 525 XL right now as well and am wondering if I need to be looking at supporting the rafters in the basement. Mine is going to be against a foundation wall so I'm a little less concerned, but just curious as to your situation.

Hi mjlash22. I am on a slab. If you’re putting yours against an outside wall. You should be just fine. I would ask how old your Home is?
