This is my first build thread. I will try and post updates as frequently as possible. Hopefully you guys enjoy and I'll probably be asking for some input throughout.

I should have posted from when I first got the tank. Anyways back story, I bought the tank second hand. It is a IM 10, there is a small crack in one of the corners but it holds water and hasn't caused any issues. I feel like i got the tank for a steal, I got the tank, AI Prime HD, mounting arm for the prime, heater, and Jebao wavemaker for $200!!

Tank has been set up for about 2 months with 10 lbs of Caribsea live sand and ~10 lbs of Two little fishies STAX dry rock. I added a clean up crew a few days ago with 3 Astrea and around 5 red legs. I think I got the basics down if you have questions or suggestions to help with my build I would love to hear them.

P.S
I also haven't nailed down a stocking list for fish or beginner corals!
(Just cleaned glass so tank is cloudy)

Just got around to making a lid for the tank. Super simple diy, just used window screen frame and some bird netting. It serves a dual purpose of keeping the cats out and fish in when i get it stocked!
