On that note, I just remembered I turned on the RO unit to fill my rubbermaid container for new water about 8 hours ago.:surprise:

Ran downstairs full blast again to find it less than 1 inch from going over.

Holy hell....I think I owe you!

You'd think you would have learned your lesson

I dont learn very quick. I already let it go over a couple weeks ago. I need to set an alarm or something when I turn that thing on. Or put it on float valves.

New bottom in the tank and so far its doing better than last time. Have the tank currently in the basement and if/when the floor is dry tomorrow I will move it upstairs and get the rock in the tank.

Heres a video instead of pictures. Nothing much to look at....most likely take out the koralia 1 as I dont think I need that much flow and I dont want it in my budget.

Once I pack the back of the overflow with filter floss the very small amount of micro bubbles you see will be gone.

Im also going to try and finish the cap this week which should finish it off nicely.

Got the live rock in the tank the other day. Most likely wont stay like this because I want to have a very solid rock structure. I will hopefully finish the rock work Saturday.

Im also not very happy with the look of the current PC's. Right now Im looking at adding a MH to the tank and making sure that would be suitable.

Im going a little slower than most I guess, but I plan on having a decent amount of corals in the tank come Dec 15th. Still havnt decided on LS yet, but I have some ideas.

Heres a current photo taken from my couch....
