I acquired this set up via barter. It had a bubble algae outbreak. I have decided to rebuild the base and remove all rotten materials. I pressure washed out all the bubble algae, sprayed it with hydrogen peroxide, and rinsed it out. I am also washing all the sand out. I pressure washed all the rock, sprayed with hydrogen peroxide and sprayed again.

I have also repainted the base and added felt pads to make it easier to maneuver until it gets loaded. I am attaching some photos of work done and will keep it updated.

I am also updating the electronics and going Neptune. I am new to saltwater and want to make it as idiot proof as I can.
