    Greetings!

    Well everything showed up today but the LED's and the live rock. The live rock shows up tomorrow and the LED's ship tomorrow. This will be a mixed reef, with unknown inhabitants as of right now. Going to place the dry rock within the next hour, and than start filling it up with RODI water.

    I am a little concerned about the drain. If you look at the picture it bends, is that going to be ok?

    A little bend is OK, that is too much. You want it to stays as vertical as possible the whole way. You will need to trim it shorter.

    After fixing some drain leaks, and long hours my tank is finally cycling. Everything is up and running, now the testing/waiting game!
