    Havent posted an update for a while so I thought I would post one this morning. This is where I am at with my tank build. This is 18 hours after filling it with water. The canister filter in the pic was just for cleaning some of the fine sediment and dust out of the water. Here is a just filled and what I woke to this morning.
