It's finally hapenning. The 55 gal tank that has been in the developing stage for the past 7 months is finally setup. I had a few complications in the process today. It started raining as I was cleaning the sand outside so I didn't get to clean it as long as I wanted. But I don't see any clouding from it. When I moved the piece of driftwood, I hit the heater and it broke. I had no idea it was plugged in until I grabbed it with my hand. Thankfully I wasn't electrocuted, but it was hot. I dropped the tape in the tank so that's why the backing isn't on it yet. But more pictures will follow later on. Hopefully next Friday I will get my first two schools of fish. I'm so excited. I was going to add some green sand to the mix. I called the lfs this morning and they said they had one 5 lb bag which is more than enough. Then I drive the 30 minutes there, and they don't have it afterall. So that idea was scratched, but the pool filter sand that I used has a mix of red pool filter sand in it also. You can't tell it by the picture, but after I get some fish in the tank I'll take some closer up shots.
So, what do you guys think?
