Sump with skimmer - YouTube
skimmer is load.

 

cant wait to get this thing wet, i wanna see how tight of a fit that monster skimmer is inside the stand in person.. thats going to be a nightmare to clean out haha.. we will have to figure out a way to quite the splashing water from teh skimmer, but over all very nice. see you in the morning to put this bad boy up on the stand.

soon starts the fun stuff of watching ammonia turn into nitrite. similar to watching paint dry. only funner and longer.

 

looking forward to pics of progress!

 

got the tank on the stand. got most of the pluming down today. Have to go back to the store for more pluming parts. Hope to get that done tomorrow. I got the 160lbs of sand and the 300lbs of dead rock today. I'm going to start putting in the sand tomorrow to. Still waiting on the crush coral. Should be here Monday. Going to clean it and put it in the tank on Tuesday.
