Dug out the 125 today and filled it with water. Leak test commenced! I have to cut the braces out of the stand so I can fit the sump underneath and then I'll be ready to mock up the plumbing. We have another out of town archery tournament tomorrow and then we're camping next weekend so that'll give me a 2 week leak test. On the 27th and 28th I should be able to cut the braces and put the tank on the stand, mock up the plumbing, and do a test run with the sump to see if I need a second sump/frag tank to handle the pump shutdowns.
I'm thinking I'm going to get a Pod/phyto pack and some PNS Substrate sauce from Algae Barn with my gift card. I'll probably throw in some TurbStart as well. Need to order some sand and a little bit more live rock. I have some old sun bleached rock that's going in and some rubble for the frag tank.
