Finalized a few plans today, also did a bit of work on the 75.

Debating on ordering some stuff from J&L, trying to decide what 175 watt ballast to go with (PFO, Vertex or Used)

Spoke to a co-worker who has is a Goldsmith by hobby. He has some Jeweler's Rouge which I will be using to remove the scratches from the glass. I figure it will take me about a month to remove all of them, obviously just spending a couple hours here and there.

There is also some Silicone that I want to scrap off, any ideas on the best way for this? I've scraped it off but there is a little residue left.

Current params are:

Calcium - 500 (Too High)
Mag - 1400 (About right)
dHK - 8 (Little low, I want 9)
ph - 8.22
sg - 1.026 (Little high, will bring back to 1.025 with next water change)
Nitrate - 10 (Went up a bit, need to dose more Vodka + a water change next week)m
