Tell me about it. I've been stalling as I hope to fully cook the rock. I've been doing weekly WCs.
I did a WC on the 7th. On the 9th I had less than 1ppm NO3 and 0.04ppm PO4. Today I still have the same readings.

Once I get the chaeto tank ready I'll re-test the system. At that time I'll set up the ATO, pump hi/low switches and work out any bugs I can find. Then I'll run it up to temp and test the chiller, backup ranco and whatever else comes to mind.
I'll also set up the RKL.

Once that is all done, I may lose patience with the rock. But honestly, I want to at least see the NO3 go away.

So, to answer your question;
I'll wager you have a new mouth to feed before we do

Holee that is long. Kid must want to come out full-grown.
Well, if I don't talk to you before then, here's to everything going swimmingly
Don't forget to maybe not eat before you go into the delivery room and remember, no matter how much your wife will hate you, she still loves you !

The build has been stalled again.
I broke the 5.5g chaeto tank, minutes before I was to flow test the system.
I'll go shopping Sunday and hope someone has another tank. Good thing I bought more than one hole saw from Princess Auto.

I was going to remove the baffle from the broken 5.5g and post the tank FF.
I broke the back panel. Now there's nothing left worth using except the ends.
Thanks Murphy
It's forcefully going in the garbage tomorrow with much pleasure
