    I have to say that came out looking great. I wish I had some more time to try some DIY work on my aquarium. But unfortunateky that is one luxury I dont have. Keep up the amazing work!

    Thank you. I'm working 10-12 hrs per day right now.....I do this on weekends maybe 2-3 hours per weekend. This project has been in progress for months :)

    Sounds like my schedule. I work around 20 hours per day so I still some time in between to do things and then my family has the weekend so I steal more time to get other stuff done.

    I am not a mathematician but if you work 20 hours per day, you have about four hours a day to work on the tank?

    Seriously, what do you do 20 hours per day?

    I'm an architect who apparently likes money more than sleep.

    Man it took 44 days for this tank to cycle! Nitrites were off the charts for several weeks and dropped to zero very rapidly 12 hours!

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Tank looks excellent.

    Sounds like a very weird cycle.

    It would have gone quicker if you would have reduced the nitrite level. Looks great though.☺
