Thanks guys!
I would LOVE to have it full of water!! Just waiting for the sump and then we can get moving. Hopefully this week sometime.
Aquascaping will be fun! Not sure exactly what I will end up with - that's what makes it so fun! Would like lots of caves, overhangs and try to not crowd it up too much. Would like to leave some sand showing since I lacked that in the 72G - just no space in there. Also would like to try not pile on the back wall and leave some swim around the back space. Haven't planned on using PVC or anything but we shall see. May be abit complicated since half of my rock is at my Mom's in the 72G. May need to raid that tank for a few key pieces and do some switching around in the end...

Carmen

It probably still looks like the first pics posted, since she doesn't have her sump tank yet...

More rock. More pics. Don't you have a new skimmer to buy?

Now about those pics...

Well not too much going on yet since I am still waiting on the sump.
Got a little antsy and decided to put water in the display below the overflow just to get the ball rolling. ( Hopefully this doesn't come back to bite me!)
Added water and salt yesterday and it's still cloudy! GRR! Want to put the rock that I have in rubbermaids into the display and start playing around with it.
Empty cloudy tank pic - whoohoo (Ya I know kinda lame...!)

24hrs later
