Restarting my Waterbox AIO 50.3

My initial plan to start this tank with TBS Ultra Live Sand has been derailed. TBS notified me that their warehouse has been damaged by hurricane Helene and will resume shipping sand in November. Now, with hurricane Milton coming to them, November seems to be too optimistic.

Thank you for the update! I was just wondering what you might have heard from them. November does seem optimistic... I hope they're all OK. Good luck with the new direction!

I also purchased 5lbs of live rock rubble from KP Aquatics and placed it in one of my filter chamber.

I've noticed some tiny bright green spots on the marco rock in several places. Hopefully, it is the sign that coralline algae spores transferred from the live rubble.

Did you end up canceling your order with TBS? I haven’t heard anything from them since an email saying my 10/1 delivery was getting pushed to 10/16 due to Helene about to hit. I didn’t get anything from them saying November delivery, which I agree is a little optimistic as well given everything going on.

Yes, I cancelled my order with them.
