Must be so hard waiting to fill!! What are the black disc things, some sort of big air diffuser?

Is your glass sitting on the bottom of the tank or is there a gap off the bottom? It seems that your silicone bead doesnt' go down to the bottom and theres a pocket where water can get trapped. If you have stagnant water you might grow lots of bacteria.

The black discs are air stones. Been using them for years.

The glass is resting on 1cm of rubber tot prevent the glass from breaking when the tank might be moving a bit. First I added the glue on the tank and then i pushed the glass into the glue. I used 15 bottles of glue and while pushing i pushed like 5 out. After I removed the redurant glue. So now there is no space between the tank and the glass. Everything is filled out so no trapped water, but thanks for the worries !
