Well this is my first tank, just picked it up a week ago. I got the tank and stand custom made. I thought it was going to be totally rimless, but i missed the part on the quote that had the bottom trim checked off. So i was a bit bumed out
when i saw that. When i got it home i took the trim off, but the glass and silicone didnt look to good so i just painted the trim white and put it back on. It looks way better atleast.
So anyway did all the pluming on the weekend, filled it with water and did a leak test and everything was good:lol:. Just ordered some sand and rock from eco-reef (thought id try it out as it is so much cheaper) and will probably just go to the lfs to pick out a few pieces of LR.

:surprise: Har Har I have a Siamese cat fish too!

My black cat was obsessed with the tank when it was empty couldnt keep him out of it.

Better hope you can when it's full of water !!!!

Quick question, how far down do you run the drain into the filter sock.

thanks for any reply

Just some pics of my aquascape. What do ya think?

The rock i put in is dead rock from Eco-reefer. So to make it live do i just throw in a couple pieces of live rock.
Thanks

Yup...nice clean lookin tank!

looks really good but the loc-lines a bit distracting.

So im wanting to start my cycle, i dont have any live rock or sand.

1. should i get some live sand and put it on top of the other sand.
2. should i get some live rock and put it in the tank or sump.
3. should i get some little coctail shrimp and throw them in the tank.
I also have some Microbacter 7 should i start putting that in.
Thanks for any advice
