if it makes you feel better i broke my overflow twice in one month even better in less than 3 weeks once was the back anel of the overflow lifting it thesecond the bottom panel. i think when it comes to builds you have to take the mentality of "thank god it wasnt the main display glass" cause things could be worse.
even with all your mishaps you still have one rocking tank that in the end will be the envy of the neighbourhood. well im envious anyways

Your welcome Tony. If you NEED a hand moving it back into place, you know where to find me. This is going to be one sweet tank. I want to see that skimmer working, that thing is a beast.

I'll let Jay help with the moving. When I picked up my sump and tank from Jay I chipped the sump moving it and cracked the corner of the tank out. I've got a way with glass.

When I saw the new picture of the sump I said, out loud, "Steve is seeeexxxay"....and my guy heard me. It made for an interesting conversation.

BUT! Glad to see you back on track....I'll be back in cowtown mid novemer till probably end of January....must do pho and beverages....but if when I'm in town you need a hand with anything let me know.
