Blue tang , Lil bow wow, and the DOGGG!!!!

Side Shot,

Front shot

All in all things went well today. The Dart has a funny noise and the input and output connections have small leaks Ill have to fix in the AM. Not sure about the Dart, well see if it breaks in and the noise stops, or if there is an issue with the pump. the actually motor of the pump is surprisingly quit, so Im not sure what the noise is?

All in all Im happy with the flow, there is a constant movment of mass water around everything, nothing is being sprayed at , and the top of the sand just slightly moves, but is not disturbed.

Ill be sure to post more as the tank progresses, after all the setup is only the beggining!!!
