![]() Changed my return pumps plumbing. I plumbed it through a bulkhead fittting, an drilled the last chamber of my new acrylic sump. Filled the tank with water. Put in the two heaters, a powerhead an turned on the skimmer. I also added my salt. I will test for salinity(adjust it accordingly) and then add some LR to seed the dry rock. I will also add two raw shrimp to get the whole cycling thing started.

![]() Still Waiting LOL. It's been a couple of weeks an just waiting for the diatom bloom. Then I will test my water params, turn on my skimmer an add the CUC. The only thing I am watching right now is temp and Salinity.

![]() Well, it will be a month next week that I started the new tank. I just need to get another power head an my lights. Hopefully I will get a diatom bloom soon and the water parameters will all be at 0.
