It really is. The hold up will be that I need to get my floor replaced in my living room before I fill the tank so I don't have to drain it and move it. I already have the flooring so hopefully I get a free weekend with my Dad to lay it down.

That's awesome. If I had the money and the nerves to open a business, I would consider do a business where I would take dry rock, seed it and mature it so I could sell it as live ready to go, pest free rock.

Problem is it takes about 10 years for dry rock to fully cure.... I had dry rock in a tank for 3 years... broke some up for frags and still dry in the center of rock...

No new pictures yet but I spoke with Thomas yesterday. Do to some structural concerns, the builders suggested doing a ghost style overflow in the middle and then have the returns drilled halfway to the end on the both sides of the back wall of the tank. I agreed with this. They are also installing dual head loc line on each return so I have 4 aimable return nozzles. My trigger Triton 34 sump has also arrived. Things are really starting to come together!

That's not good. Something must have happened to it.

He had a personnel issue, so I'm assuming the guy that was supposed to finish it didn't show up
