Got a tank, and a few accessories, now what?

That's a good idea as well I've not thought about that. The only problem I could see is when your chaeto gets large you will run into the problem of having a low level and your chaeto is out of the water.

Then your set. I would still add the bubble trap though.

Now i'm trying to figure out how to best install the bulkheads on the aquarium. I installed them hand tight, and then another 1/3rd turn with linesman's pliers. The first time it leaked (doh). i'm trying again after cleaning the surface.. again. I see a tiny bit of water above my "nut" on one side, but it's hard to tell if that water is left over, or has gotten through ><

I'm not the person to ask that I've not had luck with my bulkheads... Start a new thread and see what people say. I would be curious also.

They're dry... For now. Have about a gallon of water in the overflow to test the seal. I hand tightened, then did a 1/4 turn.
