Thanks, Greg.

I bet you're going to beat my fill date, even though you just started building your tank.

Thanks, guys.

The paint is going on the walls in our bedroom. The second coat has just gone on. Hubby is sanding the floor tomorrow, and he'll get at least a couple of coats on it. I may be able to fill this puppy this weekend.

We got the last coat on the floors last night, and she's been moved into place!

I gave up nightstand to have the tank in our bedroom. Our bedroom isn't very big in our old bungalow.

Two inches of this sand has gone in:

(Photo taken before the last of the sand was added)

15lbs was new, and 5 (or so) pounds is from my 12 gallon Nano Cube, which was "retired" in June.

My rock structure has been glued together, and is curing on the bathroom floor downstairs. I *think* it will hold together long enough to get it up the stairs and into the tank.

As my rock is not live rock, I think I'm going to break a rule and add it before the water. The water will come from my main display system, over the course of a couple of water changes. I think.
