    The tank looks great scoot. I noticed the overflow is really quiet.

    I bet that pump would make you go crazy. haha

    I was concerned about how much my RO containers bowed out when I filled them up all the way so I got some wood from HD and made some frames for the containers to sit in. This way they will not bow out at all and keep there shape... a little piece of mind.

    I also had to get another piece of pipe to redo the exit elbow for my G2 since I raised it onto a platform it was not terminating below the water level anymore... which made a splashing noise.

    I also painted the pipe for the fuge return black.

    I was able to get an update I have been cycling the tank for a while now and was able to swing by Atlantis and pick up some dry sand I saw a friend had it and it was the perfect grain size as well not to large and not to small.
