Thanks man. About to put some water in this thing finally! This weekend. Ah man your tank is amazing!

Wooo Hooooo on finally getting water in the tank. If you want some water let me know. My tank will be amazing once I get the lights situation fixed.

Man I am sorry to hear that. Why did you break it down? With what little frags I have, it seems to be working fine. The color is there. I think my problem is placement. Acros are new to me but still a learning phase. Cant wait to see your new reboot.

I added about 100-150 lbs of rock to my sump. I needed extra protection for my bioload. Considering more fish will be added to the system.

Yesterday I added 2 WP60s to the tank. They are centered on the sideds and 8 inches from the top. Here is a small video of the flow. Note: The settings are on the lowest setting.

Gotta try and find new magnets. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh for the record it's 1 1/2 inch thick.

I want to say I'm sorry for no updates. This has been an emotional past two weeks.

Still no lights yet for the tank. The govt keeps saying check in 30 days and that was 90 days ago. Plus the wedding preparation was almost a bust when I found out that the original wedding planner never kept records of the payments made for the wedding venue and on top of that everyone we have dealt with was either fired or left.

Then also this was the 10 year anniversary of my of me being injured in Iraq and the mess in Iraq now brought back flashbacks. But I'm positive.

And lastly my tank is now 6 months old. I usually do a video but I really haven't added anything to the tank. I've been focusing on getting my alkalinity in check these last few weeks and I'm getting closer to my goal.

Thanks to everyone for the support and who's been there for me through this journey. Holla at y'all later.
