    The day is here!

    Did some leak fixes today and re-plumbed the squids a bit for stability.

    And now we have rocks, sand and lights going. ;D;D;D;D;D;D

    That is a lot done.

    Looks like there is water in the tank in some of the images.

    Nice scape.

    Thanks, yeah we got a ton done today and it's filling with RO/DI as we speak.

    I'll have to keep it below overflow though, my sump/fuge won'ty be here til next week. Still plumbing some odds and ends with the storage containers as well. Getting close though. :)
