Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
If the water container is covered should be okay in my opinion.
I covered my tank when painting and turned off skimmer, no issues.
Just painted a door in my garage whey new tank and sump are.
I did not cover and think there will be a problem. Of course I will wipe it out from any other dirt.
I have to say Mike was very generous with the 80g rimless setup, words can't express it.
The system is clean and ready to go once the room is completed.
Thanks Mike and I owe you big time.
Update:
MikeM was very generous as usual. So here is my full setup free.
