Well spoke too soon, change of plans. My buddy called and said the builder had a personel issue and didn't have it ready. However they were gonna finish it and now deliver it for free and comp me 2 bags of Ocean Direct for the trouble. Works out for me. Stand isnt even done yet, building that this weekend

I don't like those for no reason really. Are you going to run a controller?

Not at the moment but hopefully someday. I am probably gonna buy the aftermarket wifi controller kit for it so i can program it from my PC and have a lot more flexibility

Ocean direct is sand bagged directly from the ocean so it has a more diverse bacteria population

Stand is almost complete. Need to add the doors amd trim. After thats on, you wont wee the edges of the plywood or the screw holes. Pretty sure you could park a truck on the thing!

Very. Also nervous. I have had some issues adding new fish to my other little tanks and can't figure out why. Old fish have no health issues, eat and are happy. New additions don't make it. So im hoping I don't have issues putting fish in the new tank.

You got this! Sorry if its been said. U r combining all the little tanks?

I'm taking all the fish from my parents existing system and combining them with my biocube in habitants. My 10 gallon is then going up to my parents cause they wanted to downsize. So the stock list so far is a Blue tang, Sailfin tang, Yellow tang, Rabbitfish, Hawkfish, Coral Beauty, Splendid Dottyback, and 2 Clarkii Clowns

Overflow box is plumbed. Waiting on the rest of the fittings to come.

Never been so excited for a box of PVC

Well, hard plumbing is a bit more difficult than i anticipated, especially when trying to figure out where to drill holes in the stand, but im slowly working through it.
