I picked about 50+ lbs of fiji rock from the now close Ocean Treasures (LFS). This brings my total to about 225 lbs of lr...I'll probably need about 25 or so lbs more. I need to order fiberglass grate to start the rockscaping.

...and the "Big Brother" rubbermaid 300 gallon trough...I swear my kids could fill it up with water and kick it in there on hot days. :bigsmile:

Finally got my Kold Sterile Filter hooked up. I had unions & ball valve added for easy removal. A hose bib was added for easy hook up to a boat hose.

I totally forgot about copper pipes leeching...I'll be changing the output to schedule 80 pipe. :crossedlips:

Gen stopped by and dropped off my qt with lids and a larger qt that fits nicely on top for larger fish. I was thinking of using it as a online or offline fuge, but thought it would be too much hassle when adding medication. He also took measurements for a light rack, not sure if I want to put a actuator on it or heavy duty drawer pulls for easy axcess.
