Christy, how did you make out with the scratches in the glass?

I didn't really. Turns out I couldn't turn the tank around as the spot to drill the hole for the overflow would have been a mass of 2x6's and stuff so not possible. So the front of the tank is the front of the tank. For the most part there are only a few really deep scratches that you can zero in on from about 10+ feet away. The rest are "cosmetic" and I would imagine they will be less noticeable to the average joe if I can keep them clean of algae.

I wish there was something like what those windshield chip repair guys do for aquariums

Its alive!!

Tank is full, leaks are plugged and water is circulating (although its really hard to tell in this picture).



Thanks to Chin, my wavysea isn't sagging into the water, who the hell designed the mount that came with it anyways? Man am I glad I bought that thing at the frag swap. I forgot I even had it

Oops I just noticed that this was the pic I took before I realized it actually WAS sagging in the water. I remounted it higher up on the mount and its out of the water now



Adding the salt!!! Whole box of RBS and then some
