There sure has been a lot of planning. Many times stressful, but it will all be worth it for a healthy tank and inhabitants.
Tank is completely full of water now, and no leaks!
I may possibly be getting a job at my LFS, I have an interview tomorrow. So if I get hired I will have a 20% discount on everything in the store, which will help me save up some money so I can finally getting everything for my tank.
Just for kicks I set up my PowerQuad 96w PCs on one side of my tank. And frankly I like the look of it, so I may use it for supplemental lighting with my MH setup.
