I think your tank would look way better inside that Ikea mirror! :)

Concrete wall behind there :cry:

Get chiselin' :)

Dude I don't know how you were sleeping at night with that stand. Yowzers.

I have that same mirror and I took the mirror out and that frames my tank, I was just joking. You Will have way more viewing angles with your tank right where it is :)

Ahah that's to funny it has to be the exact mirror!

Ya Tony that and the water level on the frag tank (Due to an un-level concrete floor beneath) has caused splashing and paint damage. Need to get this all done fast so I can stop stressin.

didn't someone (mrfish?) bust down a wall and make a room for his new tank? ;-)

When I built my sump tanks I waited 2 days and added water. I thought it would be fine as well but I later realized some parts were still sticky and left black on my fingers after touching. One tank ended up leaking on me and I think it was because I filled too soon.

FYI the silicone was black Perennator AQ 201.

I'd wait if it were me. Colby told me to wait longer than that still If I'm remembering correctly.

Colby told me a week which worked fine for me but now I might wait, how big was the tank lastlight? Don't know which silicone they used but its a transparent white.

I have lyretail anthias as well as a squareback in different tanks mind you. They are
my favorite fish, they have been easy and add some nice color.

Thanks, I will be adding some anthias down the road would you recommend the lyre tails, queens or square backs?

So I just realized I did the stupidest thing in the world. The tank is polished and has beautiful beveled edges but instead of putting anything under it I just set it on the stand. Just learned that's a big no no, apparently you can crack your tank REALLY easy by doing this so to anyone setting up a tank make sure you put plywood followed by a layer of foam down on top of your stand. Will grab new photos when I swap it over.
