    Ya just using the stock bulb for now. Added a korila 425 and have a MJ1200 to replace the stock pump if need be, going to see how flow is first.

    Ya I want to see how well this cycles with his stuff, still wasnt willing to just add fish like he says, but if i can speed up the cycle then thats great.

    Ok its all going good. Used the MJ1200 instead of the stock pump. Am pretty happy with flow right now. Added the One and Only and ammonia so off we go on the cycle. I cant find the cord for my camera, going to have to get a new one then Ill put the pics up. Not a lot to see right now anyway, just an empty tank. :)
