You might be right. I expected something after 3+ days, blew the dust off the test kit, and got...

Setting up the 40b.
3 days ago:
30 pounds aragonite (clean).
15 pounds of semi-cycled rock from another tank (with diatome cycle occurring).
Large blocks of mature Marinepure from another tank (enough for a 60g).
4oz of Special Blend.
Today:
20 pounds dry rock (appeared very clean).
4oz...
Literally received a shipment of the $40 worth of rock from John at Reefcleaners (along with a ton of CuC and pods).
It's approx 20 pounds of FANTASTIC rock that I'm very happy with (that beer bottle is actually wine bottle size and the tiles are 12" square). At around $2 - $2.50 a pound I...
Krysz,
Sincerest appreciation for the generous offer. I do have to pass as I need height (6’ or better) and side supports as well as a drillable roof, but thank you!
Just remember...
‘Oh, that frag pack was $20, honey’
‘Those lights? Yeah, they’re about $20’
‘No honey, the MP10 is a bit misleading, its nothing to do with the price. So its not actually $10, its $20.’

Can be any shape as long as the areas where the glass panels fit in are not curved.
The bottom section is required to store a...
All,
Thanks, this is engaging
mnat,
Wall growing will be enforced through intimidation.
MR,
Thanks much. To be honest I'm going to go with pond foam for the base of the next build and carve with hot wire. Then use Great Stuff to make custom contours and shelves.
It's a pain to carve out and...
Love that whole 'shelf-style' aquascaping.
I always want to try but then give in to cramming more rock in for 'grow space' and my tanks become a jungle.
Great equipment choices as well, gonna be a nice tank.
Rockwall prep and info.
So, carved a bit more and used plaster of paris to coat entire foam structures.
NOw I'm in a place I'm worried about. Obviously I can't let this come in contact with water, so i need to waterproof 100% down to the pinhole.
My initial idea was to paint the entire wall...
This wasn't meant as a group buy, there are no offers or discounts for members.
I figured that, as I was ordering and paying shipping, if anyone else wanted anything they could just add on to my order and pick up at my place or I could drop off locally.
Just wanted to make a friendly offer to...
If anyone wants to join in an Aquarium Depot order for inverts or pod packages, let me know.
Invert and pod packages are excellent (via experience, 3 times), other stuff not so much as its a drop ship company.
If interested, drop me a PM with order info, I'll reply with my Paypal info. You pay...
