We filled it up 2 quarts at a time so we didn't make a mess with the sand
 
Had a good time helping out bro! Glad it went so smooth and can't wait to see the long term progress with the new set up. It looks 10x better in person just so y'all know lol This is definalty the best aquascape I have seen in a 55gal tank, which has been known to limit in the aquascaping catagory. But Jorge had some perfect rocks and made the best of it.

And I managed to dial in my lights with a par meter. It's about 375 dead center under both 1 inch blow surface. The bottom is 200 after some thought and measurements and consult from kraze I'll leave it there
 
Would love to know what kind of wood you're using! I want to make my own wood stand, but also want to make sure I pick a wood that holds up to the weight of the tank and doesn't break down/get destroyed from the salt and hard minerals!
