Yeah, this is going to be a nice tank. I can’t wait to see how it looks with some color in it. My tank just delivered today. I started plumbing the return pump, but I need an adapter. Now you’ve got me second-guessing how tight I got my fittings - I have to go check that now - lol

I'm pretty sure I just forgot to tighten them all the way. I can be scatter brained like that. Hand tight was enough to stop the leak.

I think I'm done moving the big structures. The tall skinny piece I built with having it on the right side which is the most visible from the couch. But once I got it in the tank it was too tall. It just looked out of place. So after a couple variations I've decided to move it tu the back left corner. Here it helps hide the returns and then I can create a slope from the left to the right.

I also got the edge lights up. I'm pretty happy with the drawer slides. They allow my to push the fixture back almost 9 inches which is nice to move things around.

My goal this weekend is to try and take on the rats nest that has become the sump area. My controllers are still tied up with my existing tank so we'll see how far I can get. The tank is running in a lot of extra equipment. My goal is to start moving livestock next week.
