Thanks, it's nice to know people are interested enough to follow along and I'm not talking to myself.

Nope not talking to yourself at all... we're just waiting for something with water in it!

Just kidding, I'm sure you're just as anxious as we are.

The tank is in earlier then I thought. I went and took a look at it today, I'm going to try and pick it up before the end of the week. ( Any volunteers for help )

In the meantime here is the set-up I built for my faux fish room. It's not actually connected to the tank in any way but it's a place in the basement I can use for tank related stuff instead of using the main floor facilities. The final tie-ins to the drain and supply weren't completed when I took this pic. I thought I'd post a picture because this is the cleanest it will ever be.
