Why yes, yes it does! This pump is MASSIVE! And I mean that in the nicest way

Heres where we are now, Pulled everything out so I could start coating the walls in the fish room....

Finished installing the trimming around the backer of the tank, just have to sand, paint and stain it!

Looking good brother, but I think you missed a spot in the upper right corner ;Woot

Excited seeing it come along

Well atleast I've given you the opportunity to get used to it now lol !

Not used to being called a smarty pants....smart butt, definitely ;Hilarious.
Bulkheads have stopped dripping so far as I can tell, only checked them every 5 minutes last night up until I fell asleep on the couch ;Dead. Still going to use your suggestion though when I drain it.

Honestly I was too lazy to switch the keyboard on my phone to add in the dollar signs... ;Bored But I figured you would get it either way lol

That's good, hopefully they stay that way. And I think it will help over the long term with the seals lifespan.

And here we are, Tank is back where it belongs, back trim is done. Last thing to do with the wall is touch it up, paint it, trim and that whole wall will be completely done.

And while I'm waiting for a few more plumbing purchases to be made, I figured I'd fill the tank up and start the cycle now

By filling the tank up faster? It's a little early for alcohol dosing ;Smuggrin

No. It doesn't make it faster, but it is more fun.

You obviously haven't seen me under the influence, nothing "fun" about that ;Bored
