But, being in a hurry is a sure way to go south real quick. Start tank in June. Post about algae problems first week of August, selling whole system by October, don't want to part out. You're gonna part it out anyway, lose tons of money on what you spent trying to build a budget tank fast.

It's true I should just wait lol nice and slow. I'm in this for long haul it's been a dream since I was kid, lol I had this tank sitting for a year looking at a tank with sand, rock but no water. Wife saying get it out my kitchen just throw it lol.
