    OK, just ordered everything else, lol.
    Got my overflows, reactors, heaters, and 3 buckets of RC ordered at DF&S last night. Got the sand today. So now all I have to do is finish up the stand and put everything together, then we shall have a tank ;)

    Half of this thread is going down the porcelain express...*sigh*

    Let's get that stand built! Chop chop! Could you document the stand build process? just some pictures. Cause I'm interested in what you do.

    You won't believe me, but when you put all that rock in your tank, you're gonna be like "where did it all go?"

    Oh yes I do ;) Tank is 5 feet from that stack. But it will be enough to get me started. Specially once I transfer everything over. I need to dig up the rest of my BRS base rock from my attic eventually here soon to.

    I really hope you dont go for the wall look :p
    what a waste when it comes to a 200 gallon tank :D
    the wall is for 55's that are to narrow for anything else :p :D

    seriously though what you got planned?
    Islands? Cove?
    spill the beans man :p

    No, it will not be a flat wall like that in the tank. Thats just simply how I stacked it in the garage.
    I dont know about the aquascaping yet. It will be tough to even do initially, until after the cycle when I can transfer everything over from my 40
