907 Tank & Stand Build - 55 Gallon

Looks like the concrete countertops. I forget what they call them. Unless those are Corian....
 
First run with the electric brush was awesome :D

Tackled the top left rock until I had 5 gallons out. Going to prepare a 10g WC over the next few days, hammer out the others on the left then pull/scrub the top right rocks in the old tank water, since I can get to those easier.

Haha!

This looks like a game changer!

If you run that into a filter sock you can save the water and then do a water change AFTER vacuuming.

Oh you might be onto something there..

And imagine if I had a return pump about the same flow as the siphon, I could brush non stop until done... :thinking-face:

That's how I do it!

I thought concrete too but concrete typically doesn’t have overhangs because of cracking issues.
