It's looking a bit more colourful than when I saw it on opening day!

Should be a fun tank..

I'm not sure I envy the task of water changes, but I imagine it can't hurt to be a store and kind of be sitting on a steady supply of salt. What are the plans for water changes for this bad boy?

right now its 10% weekly as im trying to avoid any sudden spikes or drops in parameters , im currently running gfo and have the pellets ready to go if i need them , for now its good husbandry and low bioload untill i start carbon dosing and dosing elements.

ro/di for this baby lol :P

I can't wait to check it out next time I get to come to Calgary. Last time I was there you were still in build mode.

I found it really interesting to see the difference between looking at the tank normally vs the top down. From the front the bottom looks black, but from the top you can really see the plywood. Do you regret not painting/vinal wrapping the bottom, or will no one get a high enough viewing angle for it to matter?
