well I got the room almost finished where the tank will set, I put the stand in and trimmed it all out, then slid the tank in and trimmed the top of the tank out to the ceiling, also I added the sand today. Ive just been plumbing the whole thing up with pvc for the last day or so. With the filtration in my basement it requires allot of plumbing work. Also got a good deal on a etss 3000, I just received it today too. Here are some pictures of the tank installed, Ill show pics of all the filtration and plumbing once its complete.
