150 Gallon Build Thread ... From the Start

[Luc]

Coy, if it's only 1 tiny drop on your connector, I'd leave it for now as it will settle itself with sediment in no time....

/\ /\ One tiny drop is just so hard on the OCD!

Under the hood (it fits perfect - TWSS) ...

Today we added a dozen zebra danios to hopefully jumpstart the cycle ...

Maybe DrVader has something to copy for you on the tine drop...lol

Those guys are going to be lonely for a few weeks. Can't wait to see this tank in a month!

The build is amazing. To be quite honest, you've done exactly what I've wanted to do. I showed pictures to my wife and I think I've done myself in because she now expects similar results.

Coy, please be careful with posting those pictures. Give some warning up front because I'm drooling over my keyboard now...mess to clean up...

Don't think there's any tank I've seen so perfectly done in its execution.

Certainly didn't mean to cause a big fuss (lol) ... thanks again Luc for the compliments!

If anybody knows it's Vader! I love how you read into the "copy" part of this thread!

Seriously, Vader has been a great (actually phenomenal) help - but we all know that he is a Fluval guy!! No Eheims for Vader!

That's how it all started with me ... showing pictures to my wife!

Looking good already

Thanks Chris ... eager to get it cycled, the sacrificial fish (I know a couple on here cringe at the mere thought of that) out of the way, the so/so plants ripped out and get down to scaping this SOB!
