What a great time to move into your brand new house. First Christmas in the first week.

Also means the finishing of your tank setup is just around the corner.

Everything looks fantastic so far.

The Christmas season has been crazy busy...but I've got my sump in place and I've started to un-pack some of my equipment. Here is the latest picture of my efforts.

Mark...what skimmer did you end up with?

[mseepman]

I ended up getting an Octopus XP-5000 cone at MACNA 2011 when they were clearing out the booths. Got a crazy deal on it! I also got the neck cleaner...but haven't unpacked it yet.

Yes lock on door is good but....... Keep the key or spare key near by dont lock yourself out in case of emergency. It happens.. Keypad entry would be a good thing


Sent from my porcelain aquarium

Hanging the key above the door would solve that problem.

I keyed my fish-room to my office. I got keys spread all over the place.

Got some additional plumbing done today. Here are the latest pictures.







I'm pretty high on PVC glue right now...so I called it quits for the night.

Can't say that I'm the best plumber but so far I'm happy with the results.

Looking good - consider a shut-off valve on the intake side of your pump, otherwise you will be draining your sump when it comes time to maintain your pump, unless of course you plug the bulkhead in the sump. Valve would be easier long term but cost more now...
