THIS THREAD IS WORTHLESS WITHOUT PICTURES!!!

Its too bad you decided to go with an Elos tank, Geissmann lights, and Tunzes. I figured that you would have gotten some nice stuff after two years out of the hobby.

j/k . . . Congrats man! I can't wait to see it in person . . . hint, hint.

I think a couple of pics of a little progress is better than no pics at all...

Welcome back...

Brandon, Don't be afraid to ask if you have any questions about cycling that new tank!!!! I would definantley get 4or5 domino's to start, they will also be a welcomed addition down the road when they get about 5inches long!!

Hey Brandon, I pulled out some engineering books and by my calculations the salt you added to the water three weeks ago should have dissolved by now. Have you put anything living into the tank yet? Personally, I think you should consider an undergravel filter before you get too far along.
