And we have water and salt. Still have to hook the closed loop pumps up. Going to grab some mollies to cycle. I also now work at my favorite lfs. Took a pay cut. But at least I enjoy it and I get discounts.

So I’ve been pretty lazy lately. Still Havnt got the closed loop plumbed. But maybe that’s for the best. Because I just picked up a hammerhead pump. Thinking this guy will work great with some eductors and four 3/4 returns. Hopefully that’s enough for this pump to function right. Then again I want the velocity.

Got a light on the tank. Probably temporary, still deciding if I’d like to go with 2 400w mh and some dimmable led strips.

The closed loop is plumbed. Unfortunately I woke up this morning to no power to any of my tanks. My 600w brs heater is tripping the gcfi instantly. Luckily there no animals in the new tank. Temps only dropped 2 degrees. So looks like I need a new heater or two before I add fish.

So tank has 6 fish at this point. A bunch of coral. The tank is doing great. Just added some metal halides. Closed loop moves water just right. Coral are a week old. They seem to be doing great.
