Default My new stuff!!!

i decided to downgrade my 55 glass to a 20 long MT with a 20 long sump, mostly because it will be easier to move since i move lots. i built the stand and the sump. Wanted to show everyone my creation. I'm very proud of it, my first actual DIY project that i really like. PICS ARE COMING!!!!!!!!

so here it is. i'm still waiting on my 20 Long MT, and my return pump, which will be arriving saturday, but i have everything else. i will be posting more pics when it is done. it's basically a fish tank entertainment center. i love it! i love my new lights too. i opted for a 130W 30" Current power compact. Sump is ready to go. Just want my MT. Enjoy

You might have to open the strainer up quite a bit. That looks a bit restrictive. Looks good though.
