Lost my original 32 biocube to hurricane ida but I’ve picked up another and I’m starting over!!!

This one has Steve’s leds built in. would love some input on them as honestly idk if they were done right. I’ll post some pics in a few mins.

Making my own water for the first time. Cross yalls fingers. I’m so ready to set back up.

My rocks from my first tank were saved. Sat in bleach and water about 4 days. I just took them out and rinsed them multiple times turning them at every angle getting any trapped debris and sand out.

I’ve been told to set them out in the sun for a week…. It’s been raining too much to do that. Other options?

I will try to keep y’all updated.

I don't know if its a good idea or anything and probably not the best option but if there is no zoas or toxic stuff, maybe boil it slightly? I think I've read that somewhere.
 
Getting somewhere, didn’t finish filling as my back was killing me.

Been mixing water 2 gallons at a time at 1.025 each bucket.

There are traces of bleach 2.68 ppm I believe because of someone else cleaning my equipment. So now it’s amquel and prime time.
