i've been super lazy on all this lately, but the newest batch of home made rock should be ready to put in the tank by now, and so now its time to get motivated. I need to move the tank from the stand its on now, to the new one, and get it all set up, and put in the new live rock and see how bad the cycle is going to be.
the other thoughts that i've had were to use one of the 32 gal trashcans that i use to do my water changes, and see if that would fit inside the stand on one side, and then leave the 30gal tank that i was going to use as the sump, and convert that into the fuge, that way i can still get to it and see what i'm doing, but i get to add the extra volume of the trashcan...
I'm really struggeling to make a decision on all of this, cause i want to do it the best i can within my limited resources, so i'm spending lots and lots of time just stairing at all the parts, trying to figure out that magic combination that makes the most sence, gives me the most benifits, and that will provide the best home to my salty friends that i can...
i guess there comes a time(like in this case, 2 or so months down the road) that you finally either have to :pooh: or get off the pot. right wrong or otherwise.
I'll see if i can get a couple friends to come over this weekend to move the tank from the old stand to the new, dunno if anyone will be available...
whats the worst thing that can happen, then tank breaks after filling it up on the new stand and i flood the house with 75 gallons of salt water, and kill everything in the tank? oh well. at least that way i'm not still just sitting here in a holding pattern not knowing what to do next...
