    About time for an update. Packleader was nice enough to come by today and help me plumb in my new pump and overflow. Of course we ran into problems with sizing at Home depot. Then we got back to my house and noticed my ghetto rigged t5s were going to be in the way of the return pump so we had to re rig those inside of the canopy.

    Then the construction began. I mostly drank beer and watched pack work but hey it was a team effort and someone had to supervise. Someones got to be the captain of the ship. All went well except for my damsel doing some back flips of death coming extremely close the powerheads multiple times. Also my dog came over and tried to pee on Packleader. We rearranged the rock and put a piece into the fuge as it was being a PITA. And without further adieu the visual evidence!

    The puppy was at least 6 feet away when it relieved itself. To establish dominance, I contemplated going over the same spot myself.
