I have not. I did get in touch with the manager of my LFS though. He's such a nice guy. He said they would hold my teug for me until I'm ready. Might just order through him again cause they have like a week turn around with Segrest. without the high shipping costs. and I can just order through him directly without having to deal with the ex at all. Score!
Looked at the sealing of the 55gal and might have to redo it because there are some indentations/areas I messed up in the silicone (to be fair I have never sealed a tank before). So I probably have to rescrape and start over.
In other news, I got a bunch of new supplies: heaters, WATER TESTING KIT (finally
), sponge filters. Trying to convince my parents to let me get a canister filter lol. They are quieter than HOB right? They do not like the HOB because of the noise. Still Have to replace the biowheels.
Hoping to set up the quarantine tomorrow.

Yeah most canisters for a tank that size are quieter than HOB. I have an Eheim 2215 running on my 40b in my living room. You almost can't tell there's a tank in the room. I have an API Filstar on another tank and that's a little bit louder, but still relatively quiet.In other news, I got a bunch of new supplies: heaters, WATER TESTING KIT (finally
Thats sounds good, i have no idea about canisters, lolzI have not. I did get in touch with the manager of my LFS though. He's such a nice guy. He said they would hold my teug for me until I'm ready.

What is a relatively inexpensive canister for a 55? That is good to know!

I do not know about them either or sumps. Lol. I would make a sump if I knew how.
Jaws showed me how to make sump using a HOB, no drilling in the tank, J jaws7777What is a relatively inexpensive canister for a 55? That is good to know!
My Eheim is essentially silent.
Eheim 2217 for a 65. Not super cheap, but worth the $ IMO.

I had a 2262 and have a 2217 on my 75 right now and both are pretty quiet. Best cans imo. Because of the simplicity their is no bypass all the water has to pass through the media
There's a thread on cheaper 55 gal canisters right now in the General forum - I tagged you, clm.
