Looks great.. Did you have those powerheads before? How do they run?

Thanks GR808, No, Im looking forward to trying them. They're pretty cool, they come with controllers to control how fast they rotate.
 
Fresh water leak test. I know its not salt but atleast its water.

Water test...you're getting there ! The stand and cabinetry look sweet also. :cool:

Thanks, I be been on vacation in Cali for the last week, so nothing new. I should get everything moved in the house this week and plan to get it running by the weekend. The doors should be mounted on the stand when I get home, ill post some pics when I get there.
 
Just got back from vacation and found Monti eating nudis. Pretty bummed about it but all I can do is deal with it I guess. I havent added anything for a while, they're pretty hard to spot. Anybody has any tips, Im all ears. Thanks
 
Look what came in the house today. This weekend should be fun.

Incredible job, Brett! Esp. under the stand. Very well organized.

Just one question, do you have the skimmer draining into that pitcher? I would see that as a potential hazard.
 
LOL Thanks man, No, that line goes to an Avast skimmate locker. I'm not sure why the pitcher is hanging there, I didn't even notice it was there. haha
 
Couple shots with sand.

Thanks for looking. I also got a few new fish in QT, Ill post some pics later.
 
My new babies in QT. They're eating frozen baby brine really good so far but getting them on anything bigger is gonna be a long haul. Im feeding 4 or 5 times a day right now. I imagine these 3 will be in QT for a while. Wish me luck. sorrry for the crappy picture, that window behind the QT is terrible.
