After months of planning and hoarding pieces, I finally got it started today. I've changed the old brittle hoses out and moved the intakes to the other end of the tank. My crushed coral and pool sand mixture washed and laid down. Now I just have to adhere my huge chunk of driftwood to the slate I picked up and place it in. The rest should be done by the weekend. I'm pretty stoked to put it all together and get everything the way I want it. I know it's old hat to most, but I am off the road and can actually enjoy it now. Pictures will be posted when I'm "done". If that can ever be achieved.LOL!
