I bought a 20 gal tall off craigslist that is drilled and plumbed with a 10 gal sump and a stand. I redid the sump because I didn't like the layout. I'm going to be using sand and rock and some old water from an established tank to speed up cycling, then I will be moving all livestock from my fluval spec V to the 20 gal and I will end the thread for the fluval spec V. I am having a problem with the spec V (I think it's leaking from the bottom).

I only have cycled sand, water, and some snails in the DT right now. The live rock is in the sump at the moment until the water clears up so I can see what I'm doing when I do the rockscape. Hopefully everything will cycle quickly (if there is one) that way I can move the corals soon. I wanted to get this post in quickly since tomorrow is the cut off date for entry.

Thanks. I can hardly wait to get more corals and see it once everything is grown.
