I'm excited as well Sarah, too excited, OMG somebody stop me, I've been doing a lot of research and the more I learn the bigger my ideas get, I can see why you guys get addicted to this. If had life to live over again I would have become a marine biologist but I missed my calling and instead became a pipefitter where I have worked most of my life in food and beverage producing plants installing stainless steel tube. So after learning about the sump and the pumps and skimmers and reactors and the RO filters I have discovered that this will be a great DIY project for me and something that I'll be able to take great pride in. The problem is, as I'm sure you all are aware, my wallet is struggling to keep up. :D
Heck in my mind I'm up to a 120 gal tank now sitting on a custom built stainless steel stand with all my piping being stainless steel tube. I'm addicted already and I haven't even started.
