Well kinda...like 1/3rd...without salt...without sand....without rock...and without livestock. Seems like you are putting effort to fast pace everything recently

I don't waste salt on a leak / run test & not really trying to fast pace the build as there is so much more to this build then just the 300 gal tank.

Yea it was a cool build to see in person when I picked up that bulkhead. My GF was jealous she didn't get to check it out haha. It's very well designed and built system. Wish I had those building skills! When I upgrade to a 1-300 gal tank I'll be going to a store lol.
