Got salt....?
Finally tank is full & sump is half full. Dumping 3/4 bucket of salt in the tank felt good. Salt storm!

Scape
well many hrs later and this is what I came up with...... All the piece that touch the glass are cut flat. There are 5pcs glued with JB waterwweld and cyano superglue. and a few island rocks just placed on bottom.
The water is very cloudy still and the crappy freshwater LED isint helping any. Any advice before sand? too much rock..... looks good.....I dunno |
