My Very First Journal - Gina's 150 gallon upgrade

[Coasting]

Tomorrow while I'm out I'm going to look for a good sturdy step ladder.....

I can reach the bottom.... But currently I'm using a step stool on top of a dining room chair It's safe, I swear.....




Gave everything a wipe down today so I could start putting my rock in.... Then realised I only have 5 zap straps....
Did a few rocks together.... Managed to punch myself in the face while pulling one tighter with the wrong kind of pliers.... lesson learned.
So going to go buy some more zap straps tomorrow as well... and perhaps a big Rubbermaid to use as a sump until I get my shit together
And maybe look for my aquascape putty stuff....



My doser arrived today as well Hurroh! I have a serious addiction to buying all my stuff direct.... But its soooooo much cheaper....
Still waiting for my test kits to arrive however (Canadian retailer), gotta do this properly!
Definitely don't enjoy coming home to see dead colonies when a solution is this simple.




Tomorrow I plan to finish my rock, get the plumbing together, add my sand, ADD WATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
