After my moving tragedy (Help! I'm moving.), I have finally started the re-build process. Very excited to get things back up. I was even able to get a matching cabinet from the good people at Crystal Dynamics.
I thought this would be a good opportunity to start a build thread. Please forgive me if I'm not putting this in the correct forum. I thought there was a build thread "instruction" page, but I can't seem to find it. This is my progress so far.

So, I've added new live sand. I used my rock I had from my last build. I kept it wet but not so sure it's "live" anymore. Should I put some additive/bacteria in the tank to get the cycle started?

It's been a long time sense I updated this thread. So I thought I would get back into it. I recently added some Chalk Bass to my tank and they've been great. Easy to acclimate. It took a few days to socialize but they doing awesome. Highly recommend these guys.

Glad to see your tank is still going strong!
