    Sorry I haven't really done an update on it lately as work has me wrapped around its little finger since I work retail and it is the Christmas season.

    My sump is up and running but its down temp. so I could seal some of the plumbing this morning. It is a 10 gal but it is working like a dream :) but I'm going to build a new one or add to the one I have because I want to add a fuge to it. Hopefully I can start on it tomorrow. I currently have little over 25 lbs of rock in it now about 4 lbs is live rock and its spreading to the dry rock. I have another 10 lbs on the way and will order my last 20-25 lbs on my next check. Take it slow let it grow right? :) Salinity is at 1.025 and nitrates are on the rise. I haven't tested it today but will tomorrow as I will be coming home late tonight. I have a refractometer on the way along with an over flow box. I'm getting excited but love watching it come together slowly. Hubby can't wait to put fishies in it but I'm waiting till everything is cycled and perfect. I will post pics soon! :)
