Wait till I take possession of the fish!

Man, I gotta stop by and check your setup in person.

what rocks you using???

Thai and I agreed on a certain kind of rock but really whatever I find at the yard. Must compliment the fish though. I will have the most premier aquascaper helping me out also.

Thanks Omar, John and Brian. Yeah I love the sump too, we'll see if it can handle a load of fish.

Nice clean start! Now it's time to get it dirty with lots of fish.

What's the gizmo in the last picture? It has Pan World on it. I've never seen that before.

One small suggestion... consider mounting your power strip so it's not sitting on the floor. It allows you to make proper drip loops, and it prevents it from getting completely flooded if the tank springs a leak or cracks. I've had a tank spontaneously crack on me, and it's not fun. Last thing that's needed is to have the water flooding the electrical circuitry.

Good advise, I'm still not done hooking everything up and plan to mount the strip up high like the rest of my tanks. That Pan World thing is a return pump.

As promised, pics of what I got going for now. I did add more substrate, these pics are from the night before. Still missing the canister..

Dude, if you pick the right rocks this tank is going to be nuts! You know which ones I'm talking about too. Contrasted with the fish....OMG!

I should had pulled the trigger on this tank a long time ago when I had the chance. Great deal from a great guy.

Here we go..... I just purchased a AGA 90g RR tank and stand from a good buddy of mine. The stand was a honey brown color which is now satin black to match the tank trim. As of yesterday it was filled with 50lbs of Agronite substate and water. For filtration I have a Precision Marine micron bag sump with a Pan World external pump and a Eheim 2026 canister. BUT.... the seal went south on me and awaiting a new one. Only thing I need now is a nice 48" light setup and rocks. For a heater I got a Eheim Jager 150w which should be plenty cause the tank is in the house. Also I installed a black background. It's late now and I will post pics tomorrow. I'm pretty stoked, this is going to be one of my favorite show tanks!
