i was just thinking when is she going to finally post some updates!
Well the tank is looking very very nice. I like the layout of the stones but you should get more since them fishies you going for love caves.
The 50/50 really makes the left side looks as if its some reef in the ocean.

Thank you williedee! I am quite happy with it.
I would have had updates sooner but I am stubborn and couldn't give up on the colorquartz. Now that I have a replacement I may try a degreaser or something similar and see what happens, worse case I throw it out.
I am definitely getting more rocks, probably later this week I will be picking up 50lbs. After a couple days I will start the fishless cycle so the next update will probably be a long way off.
Although I do have those new stainless steel trim tanks that I have not done anything with yet...Hmmm..... 
I agree that the left side looks more like a reef, partly because the fake rock on the left has alot of greens & orange/reds in it. But I really love the feel the 50/50 gives off, almost like real sunshine shining through clear blue waters (nothing like our local waters).
I see BK has a recent update too! Going to go check that out right now.

lol i completely agree. Just dont make 2 of an ocean mood in a fw tank :silly:
Why not seed the filters you plan to use so the cycle completes faster??
Saltwater tanks seem to be wearing off on me lately...:uhoh: I have a 58g Oceanic with overflow & trickle filter just sitting in my bedroom, all alone & empty. :headshake2:
I will be seeding the tank with a fully cycled Eheim 2213 from my FW community tank.
More pictures anyone?

Thanks everyone!
Waiting to add fish is by far the hardest part!
(not counting the colorquartz, of course)
