Great progress. I too am in the process of setting up a 90. I just started this week so am nowhere near as far along. I'll keep an eye on this thread and see what tips I can pickup from you.

Thanks guys. Good news, bad news I have water in the tank. (good) I have a leak (bad).



Hmmm guess I should have put some teflon tape on the bulk head, Leak Test /Fail. I'll fix that later.
