No. Water was heated and powerheaded in a 5 gal pail, then salted to the right salinity before adding to the tank. BTW, I first I put in the sandbed, then put a plate on the area where the water would fall to reduce cloudiness and to prevent a big hole in the sandbed. Water went in jug by jug by ever-lovin' jug. Tedious, PITA process ...
The tank's almost clear now. By morning, it'll look great and will be ready for some rock :-) I've got a couple of places lined up to hand pick the rock. From one place, the rock's cured Indonesian, but the place is closed on Wednesdays :-( From the second place, the rock's Fijian and looks almost cured if not fully cured, but it's open till 9 pm :-)
