I woke up to day to find that the small bit of salt creep on the bottom of the tank has turned into a fast drip. not looking good at all. I pulled out the 80# of rock and 4 fish and put them in a Rubbermaid bin. got a heater and a protein skimmer running on it. I really don't know what im going...

im patting my self on the back, LOL. I think it turned out ok. Its made from a Lees specimen container. the plastic is to brittle to do small cuts so I removed a large piece and then glued a piece of plexy (spelling?) glass over it then I was able to make the small cuts.
