Not much to report theses days, still waiting on a few things to show up.

Here is about a 1/4 of my rock. ECO Rock from Bulk Reef Supply


I was originally planning a to use a GEO reactor but it ended being about an inch too tall.. I found a pretty good deal on a used PM locally so I picked it up.

Well,

It was my own stupidity, I was hanging the lighting inside the canopy frame that I built to see how everything lined up, hight etc. I had it the light lit pulled it off the canopy set it on the brace, got distracted..and pop.

I have to find a way to fix the tank. I can't get another tank in my basement, I had to remove a wall to get this one in and that's not happening again.

1) order new piece of glass
2) Make jig/glass holder thing, so you can avoid the need to grow two extra arms, and hold it for a few days straight.
3) silicone into place.
4) Crack open a cold one and enjoy your handiwork.

Or

5) Pay someone to come and fix it for you.

P.S. I can't seem to figure out which thread to follow/post in.

I have been following yours on both also, I agree it can be interesting to follow both.

Probably easier to follow this one, I spend more time here *lol*
