One of my LFS has a sale on Court Jesters tomorrow. I'm going to head there tomorrow and hopefully pick one up.
I warn you. Court jesters seem like fun at first but you are going to get tired of all those bells pretty fast.

Where's LE?
Tempe I think technically. Could be Mesa. It's sort of local for us

Have fun. LE has a pretty good black Friday sale if you're looking for fish or "acros"
I saw that. Those Blue Side Fairies... I really considered going but we're still a little tight on cash right now. Aquaholics is close and I only have to buy 1 fish. LE has Hector's BOGO 1/2 off but they'd be a little more each and I'd have to buy 2.

They're a great place. They QT everything for a minimum of 2 weeks and have great specials. I got my Leopard Wrasse from them.

I don't see any fishes on their website. I'm guessing it is a walk in LFS.

Aaaaand they didn't get the shipment in. Almost bought a Blue Sided Fairy Wrasse for $45 but if I was doing that I could go to LE and buy one for the same price and get a Hector's half off...

Yeah you do... ;) :)
I actually called. He said they have plenty of both Hectors and Rainfords. The BOGO 1/2 starts tomorrow, the Blue Sided is today. Maybe I'll grab a Rainfords for the sump and one for the DT. I need an algae eater for the sump for sure.

Ok, sump side space is 7.5"W x 27"T x 21.5"D.

My gallon jugs are 13"T x 4"D & T

4 jugs (Calcium, Magnesium, Alkalinity, and Phosphates) plus my Dechlor (same height but 2"W) should all fit with a few inches to spare. I'll have to make a smaller bottle of Nitrates to fit in the space I have available.

Shelf above the supplements will give me about 12" tall plus some extra headspace for both. Trying to figure out what to do for my "wire management " cabinet in a 12" * 7.5" space. That's not a lot of room for the Hydros, Inkbird, and three power strips, although the"always on" power strip could theoretically mount to the back on a small shelf or something.

I dunno, I'll have to draw some stuff up and go from there.
