If you had used warm water you could have at least thrown some power heads in and a heater made a whirl pool tub while you waited.

yeah...In my new house I thought of putting hot and cold taps in the garage...but this current place doesn't have that option. That water was sooo cold I couldn't put my hands in for long.

This is an awesome build! Really looking forward to see this tank full of livestock and thriving!!! I love the light going up an down automatically.

Is it normal to use generators out there or you just installed it for the purpose of keeping a back up to keep the reef going in case of a power outage?

Thanks for the compliments! As for the generator, its not common but it should be since the are really very affordable! I got it for the tank but its really helping me everywhere!

Nice to see water in that bad boy, even if its just temporary. Sounds like you're getting real close (to actually working on the tank) now! :-)
