It’s a start (~29G tank first time)

[pcalvas]

So here we go. Starting this for my 29ish Gallon that I’m putting together. Started planning a while ago and reading then getting a couple things here and there. my wife found the tank and stand together so I decided to go for it. Collected a majority of what I need. Still waiting on the rocks and need to order tests before I start the cycle, but this is it so far.

My 2 year old little girl helped me paint the stand after I sanded it down by hand.

Materials so far:
OASE Biomaster 2 Thermo 250
SMATFARM G5 Aqua Star
29G tank ( almost a cube but not quite)
Caribsea substrate
Caribsea live rock (gets here Saturday)
Filter media (multiple types)

OASE Biomaster 2 Thermo 250 why?

The stand was also fine before why sand it ?
