Thank you :) and thanks for following along! I have appreciated all of the tips and advice for sure.

WoW ! ;Jawdrop nice build.

I'm now thinking hood, hood, hood for mine when /if that day every comes... I dunno I got such a weird space. sigh
Thanks! I am in your same situation in regards to power outlets with this thing. I honestly haven’t even looked at the breakers ;Nailbiting
 
40lbs of caribsea liferock arrived today. I was very thankful to have almost no breakage in shipping. It looks great. I added a 72” current USA led that came with the tank just to get an idea from the couch. I think I like how it turned out :)

Nice! Did you have any left over or is that the lot?

That’s all of it. Not near as much as I thought 40lbs would be. I think it will be ok though. Here’s before and after the rock add. You can see the new darker purple additions.

I feel so close!! Doors on, sand in. Need some saltwater. I will add 20lbs of live sand after I get it filled. Then some Tim’s one and only to get the party started. :)

Very nice!
 
It’s been a long wait, but this will have water on Saturday. I’ve ordered another 40lbs of caribsea life rock - 20lbs shapes and 20lbs of regular. I probably won’t use all 40lbs, but I feel like I want to see what pieces I get and if I can improve the scape.

I also need to find more time for R2R ;Sorry between work, kids on summer break, and keeping the house in order... I have been missing this place. I’m hoping filling this tank up will get me back in gear!

No worries. I know the feeling. Any free time I get, I'm on here. (Which isn't much lately) Good to hear your getting the new tank wet. Post some pictures then!
 
Um, can I borrow you for a weekend? My 125 gallon has been sitting outside for a few months now because I can’t get my husband in gear to build/lift things for me. Lol
Depends where you’re at! This was supposed to take me a weekend... I think it’s been a few months now :D
