Don't worry about it. Waiting is all part of the process. You wait for the tank. You wait for the cycle and then to finish the cycle. You wait for your fish. You wait for your coral. Your tank is full. Now you wait for it to grow or something bad happens and the waiting starts again. Lots of waiting in this hobby. Relax. Have a drink. Enjoy the wait.

True, I have been waiting 12 years already....so what is a few more weeks? Besides I don't really have an alternative!

Picked up a Gyre 150 that I have been looking for off of a fellow Canreef member. Very happy about that. Thought that I was done on equipment but just remembered that I need an Apex automatic feeder!

Sounds like you're well on your way. It will be heaps of fun putting it all together.

Okay skip ahead a full year! Yes I have had water in my tank for a year now. I have had a great time adding things, and a bad time killing things. I have met a lot of people in the hobby and made friends here at Canreef. My tank never seems static, as I am always changing something! No regrets one year ing

Worst tank update ever.

It has taken me a year to figure out how to post a picture!
