Tank should be sent out sometime in the next few days... then a week for delivery, so i'm crossing my fingers (but not holding my breath!) that I get it by the end of next week.

In the meantime I've put my Eco Rock (from BRS) + a bit of sand in my 10gal topoff, added salt, and some probidio to help kickstart the cycle. I figure I might as well get that on the way, so the cycle for the tank is minimized.

My probidio (biodigest + bioOptim) is almost out... I dont like using it on smaller tanks, as once you crack the viles you have to throw the rest out, which seems like it wastes a lot of product. Was thinking of using zeobak, thing this is a suitable alternative?

I like the fact that it comes in a dropper, and you only put in 1 drop per week per 25gal. Should last my 15gal tank a loooooooong time.

Thoughts?

well the new tank came over xmas break and it looks great! Its actually thicker acrylic than the last one (which seemed thick enough for me) so I'm stoked to get it wet.

Should be working on it this week/weekend, so I'll try to get some pics up when its done.
