    GOOD JOB!!!!


    Can't wait to see some pics.


    Keep us posted on move setup startup, etc. Or better yet start a "ebasallo's tank thread"... - so we can all share in the fun.


    Good luck!

    yea im taking it slow for sure....

    i got it on saturday i cleaned it because it was really dirty n stuff....

    n then the pet store that i go to im really good friends with the owner so i got him to come to my house...n check everything out.....n he said everything was perfect....

    so i set up the rocks i put in the sand n then i oured in the water....n ima let it cycle like for a month or month in a half n then ima start adding stuff sloowly....

    i still need to buy a heater which it didnt come with and i want to change one of the lights bc its ugly....it makes the tank look green...
