No worries, as I say, some thought but not too much.
The bye laws really say that any home business cannot become a nusciemce to the other neighbours for noise, congestion etc and must not be an illegal activity. Early days, and more dream than reality.................. But who knows "sea nery" may ne day become more than half a dozen beers and a pizza.

Is it a reef tank, fowlr, or a cool mixed reef, or maybe a small predator tank ? Drop some photos and some specs on here. Is it cycled yet ? Any fish yet, any corals ? Sorry just excited, I just took my cube down and transferred the fish to my new set up in st Albert, the "rebuild" of the tank in fmm is going to be reef and only reef, corals and some coral fish, nothing too OTT just peaceful and colourful.

Sorry about the crappy iPad picture, but the tank was running for 2 years Neill I bought it from them on Tuesday it's. a 75 gallon half round tank and is my first reef tank.
It came with a Fluval FX5 filter, cheap lights and a power head, also 100 lbs of LR and 60Lbs of LV sand. It also came with 1clown fish and a star fish, both are doing well both eating and look quite healthy. I just ordered a sump, protein skimmer and some LEDs of ebay, and an RO/DI system. I have had it for 4 days and used 70% of the water that the previous owners had and the rest was a fresh batch of treated tap water and salt mix. I did PH, NITRITE, PHOSPHATE AND CALCIUM tests last night and all is well within acceptable limits. I want to keep some corals and some colourful fish, just waiting to make sure the tank is ok before I buy corals and add any more fish.

Are you going to drill the tank or use a hang on the back overflow ?
If u can go drilled now that would be better, get rid of the fluval 5 as soon as u can set up the sump. You can s ell it and buy some more equipment. Love the tank dimensions and the half circle look. What light would u like ?

Using a hang on back overflow, then if in 12 months I'm doing ok in the hobby I'm going to go for a bigger tank may be 220 or so but that will have drilled overflows
I thought I might use the FX5 as a carbon and GFO filter if possible? I just bought some LEDs that are programmable and have high range of spectrum
