I got another bulkhead, it didn't fit either so I had to get creative
  Eventually I'll replace some of that with a bulkhead and something that looks a bit more "professional"  for now it gets the job done though. Not much here for serious tank plumbing parts. I suppose a trip to Vancouver might be in order (also depending on how stuffed this thing looks once I get everything moved over )So I got sand and rock in the tank now. A couple of stomatella snails came in with the rock and I flung my last hermit crab in there for fun.  I was sort of going for the "minimalist" look, now I'm not so sure. I don't want the tank crammed with rock but it looks like it could use a little more?? Comments please  Man, I didn't realize just how much I missed the look of a sandbed in the big tank. No doubt I won't be saying that in a few weeks when its all scuzzy looking. More pics soon with all my stuffs moved over

Wow, you really scored!
On a side note, everyone wish Kari a speedy recovery, he fell of a ladder the other day and seriously hurt both his arms. Just to paint the picture, Kari comes into the store a couple days ago with heavy cast around both his forearms, and says "I can't make those drip plates for you." ... What a soldier!

Yes I did score didn't I?
I hope someone bought Kari some really long straws or fashioned a drink holder in his cast(s) Ok, I'll continue to toot my own horn here. More pics I was thinking maybe I should wait a bit before I moved the livestock over, then I thought naaah. I've never been a big one on patience anyways (please note that the rock was cycled and had been held in my sump for the past 2 months and I used half seasoned tank water). Tah-dah!   I'm thinking it could use some more rock, not that I want to stuff the tank full of rock but at this point where am I supposed to put all the new goodies I want to put in it??

What an amazing little tank.
You know what you need now though, is a different tank that's slightly bigger, and then, down the road after that, another one that's bigger yet, and ....
