Aqua Cave has sent a notice that UPS needs to inspect the tank and contents and take it away .
Once Aquacave gets the notice the tank was picked up they will send the new one out .
Pretty good resolution . :)

Just a lil bucket of salt ,Vitamin C n some coral frenzy for down the road .
I have about 8 RO/DI lowe's buckets in several closets around the house .
I will be using this cabinet to store fish stuff .




I also got in this tiny python pro with siphon starter. It's so small .
Should work well in a nano

I got a few more items for mait . Digital spoon , rubble rock , another frag rack .
I don't need the frag rack yet . I have just got in the last of my frags for the NUVO Fusion 40 .
I am still thinking about picking up a few more items from one more source. Any who ,
it should be a good start .
I was just running the 40 to test for noise and if the wet side would hold up .
I haven't cleaned the wires up since I can't find a blue light dj power strip.

Just a quick shot of the frag QT tank .

Tank # 2 showed up today . It looked kinda beat up .
I also had a package show up from Steve Bashea (Bashea Aquatic's ) . It is their new mad rack .
Can't do anything with the tank until ECUreefer stops by this evening .




The Mad Rack box was packaged really well .

In regards to the mad rack
I read one complaint of no flow thru the rack but see no issues. I may agree things may slide left n right dependent on flow direction .
Steve stated " I am going love it " .. :) . We'll see.
Looks nice though .

Looks like things are coming along nicely. Sorry to hear about the first tank, hopefully the second is intact. The new frag rack looks awesome. Let us know how you like it, I was looking at them online the other day.

Thanks ..both of u .
Yes Sir's ..
The tank is intact . Wet testing now . One media basket did not survive the trip . My two local buddies stopped by this morning .
We got a few things done .
I had to take a nap . PC sound was closed so no DJ Power Strip yet .
I agree stuff happens . The frag rack is nice . It is the 11 x 11 model and it should barely fit in the nuvo 10 qt tank . I will keep u posted .
