Just got off live chat with Marine Depot. Tank Delivery is being held up due to the road conditions. Delivery is now set for tomorrow. I will have to rely on my wife to inspect the delivery. She is very thorough.........Poor delivery guy!

I scored this huge barnacle cluster at a beach shop a couple weeks ago. I’m planning on using it to cover the overflow box. I hope it works out and looks good!

You may not want to do that, It will collect a lot of detritus. You will have nutrient issues if you don’t keep them blown out.

Thanks srad750c. I’m concerned about that too. I’m not going to permanently attach it. The one thing I have going for me is that the back side is wide open. I will blow it out with a blaster every so often and see what comes out.

Thanks for your input!

No tank today[emoji25]. Hopefully it comes tomorrow. Roads are finall clear here in SC after 2 days of being shut down due to the storm.

Beautiful Rocks and Beautiful Bentley

Like the rocks a lot! Wish I had a Bentley!

Still no tank. It looks like it’s sitting in North Carolina. I know the bad weather had a lot to to with the hold up but it sure would be nice to have it here and ready to assemble. I will call the freight company tomorrow and see what the plan is. [emoji853]

 

[mta_morrow]

Just called the freight company. Tank just got unloaded in Charlotte. Trucker should call later today or early tomorrow to schedule delivery. Ugh. Weather has added days if not a week to delivery.

 

[mta_morrow]

Ok...... just got on the waitlist for a turbo aquatics algae scrubber. Thanks for walking me through the process Bud! #turboaquatics

Since I have moved to an area where power outages and hurricanes happen, I used 285,000 Marriott Rewards points to get this:

I still have to do some final assembly, but at least it’s here. I was pretty happy to find out that this house is already setup for a whole house generator. Flip a switch, plug it in, and it will power up the main panel through a whole house surge protector as well.

Can you park that red car any closer to the wall hehe

I got the same pump, have not set up. What is aqualink? I bought a computer battery back up, hope it works out just as good! I also been debating on the seneye. Do you think it's worth the monthly cost? Im also setting up a tank! My tank wont be here for about 1 more week

The aqualink is needed for the icecap battery backup. It also allow you to use an app to control the pump via WiFi and do cool stuff with it.

Check out reefbreeders.com. They sell the pumps and aqualink and have a better description.
