Ok after running fresh water and bleach through my used and abused tank. I'm now running fresh water and 2 sacks of carbon. Should have live sand and salt water with in the next 2-3 weeks and testing water everyday.

Here are simple tips from experience.
Go to lowes or Home Depot get a water proof mat and put it under the stand trust me when things drip it saves wooden floors.
It's also kinda hard to get under the stand when your tank is full of rock sand and water.
