New scape looks good Josh. looking forward to what comes out!
Thanks Jon. My main concern wasn't even the dry rock... just worried in general.

I got my 2 TLF reactors hanging on the side of my sump for that exact purpose though. Just need to pick up some plumbing parts and tubing today.

I turned the RODI on last night at about 1030pm. Tank is full, heater in the display bringing the temp up, MP10's are going. Now just waiting for the sump to fill. Skimmer has been cleaned out and the skimmer pump is currently going in a bucket of Water/Vinegar mix for a final cleanse.
