After waiting for a cabinet to be ordered and built I have finally gathered all of the things I need to get started. In negotiating for real estate in out very small 1927 bungalow we agreed on getting a large cabinet to hold my existing freshwater planted tank and my new BioCube. Today I made a control board from a pvc board and attached a power strip and all power bricks and controllers. The board is to be attached to the end of the cabinet.

Done for evening. Control board installed. Drain, move, and rescape existing freshwater tomorrow.

Freshwater tank moved and re-scaped, cable management for it completed.

Everything is wired and connected. Heading to LFS for rock, sand, and water.
