Thanks Chris
Come by anytime. Going to John's today to see why one of my sedra pumps for the skimmer is not working. Hopefully I won't have to buy one. If I do maybe somebody has a used one I could buy. Other than that and finishing the fans, tunze's and doors on the canopy and stand I will be done. Then the cycling. I do not think I will have much of a cycle though. I have 125lbs of cured rock but I do have all new sand. Actually too much sand. Does anybody know an easy way of taking sand out? LOL
Sue

Sue, I will have to plan to stop by one day and check it out. I hope you got your Sedra pump working fine. I know I get frustrated when my equipment fails.

Bryan - maybe we could ride together and go check out Sue's new tank!!!

Happy New Years!
Chris

Happy New Year everyone!
The tank is up and running. Pump is fixed thanks to "Jennifer". Had to buy a new impeller. I also called Greg (Thanks Greg) to help with the skimmer. So all is well and looking good. Need to move some sand around and a few pieces of huge rock, get my tunze's and fans going and as long as the husband finds the time to order my doors and finish them I can put my canopy on.
Anybody is welcome to come over anytime. I am so thrilled I can hardly sleep at night. I keep coming out of bed to constantly check on the tank to make sure all is well. It's also a bit scary as well.
