Playing with the skimmer at AE!! YAY!! Getting the skimmer in the stand. Also had to make sure that the max water level is 10 inches Denzil getting ready to start putting on the vinyl on the back of the tank. I worked in wiping it down and cleaned up the sides from the water test...

I did! Matt keeps them in stock and has awesome prices! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

That's totally ok! Thank you! I'm at work and haven't had tons of time to post, so thank you for doing that! I won't put sand in until plumbing's done. And yes, Onyx Rapid LED light fixtures FTW! @aqua-nut, nope, I can't. It's a darn good thing I waited. I can get the collection cup out, but...

Everything came from Matt at AE. He was the awesome person that SO'd the skimmer for me, since I believe it's a size he doesn't normally carry. @euod, no photoshop, just lots of hard work on Denzil's part. Mine too, but I'm not going to lie, Denzil did an awesome job polishing and resiliconing...

For all you non believers :p I will post up progress pics on lunch haha. Didn't get a chance to do so last night. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Skimmer is in the sump, the new pump is in place, Denzil's getting the backing out on the tank and I'm cleaning up the glass! Once we get the backing on, I'm going to put the wp25s in place, then I'll post up pics! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

True that. You could always give her a choice (women tend to like "choices" ;) ) you can tell her "well, I can do it now, to give you some room back, but keep in mind, it might fail because I didn't have enough time to resilicone it, or, give me another 2 weeks, so I can make sure that it's...

Yup! Rated for 500 gallons but that's lightly/medium stocked. I will be on the heavier side of stocked, so before putting in an order, I contacted Aquamaxx and asked them what they thought. Their recommendation was the larger one. Now we are moving! Finally! Damn RLSS with their shoddy...

Skimmer should be here next Monday or Tuesday!! I'll be headed to a plumbing supply house on Friday after a drs appt ^.^ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

So, after talking to Aquarium Specialty and RLSS, I have decided to no longer wait on the skimmer, and we are ordering an Aquamaxx CO3. I was going to order the EcoMaxx EM300, but reached out to AquaMaxx to see what their ratings were based on, just in case. Good thing I did, because their...

I cleaned out most of the silicone out of the old tank and I'd say I worked a good three hours on it, then denzil went behind me a nit picked to make sure that we didn't leave anything behind, so we had a good seal. It went a lot smoother than planned. I was advised to safely say that silicone...

Cured for almost three, leak tested just about two ;) give me a few more days and it will be two weeks. Haha. Planned on emptying it out after the skimmer is ordered. That way we can have the backing on the tank and everything is ready to go the day the skimmer shows up. Sent from my iPhone...

That would be wonderful!! I'm tired of waiting on it LOL. Erin, I'm not sure Id send Somali pirates after them.... No guarantees I'd get the skimmer without loss of life... LOL Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

LoL I guess it's true, although it doesn't feel like it, hahaha. The tank has been leak tested and found sound! I think it's had water sitting in it for almost two weeks now... I can't remember when Denzil filled it up. I only remember that he did it for me because I was at work. Well, we...

Thanks! Yup! We just pulled into Home Depot Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Thank you! Me too. She seems to be doing really well. So far no more dislocations, and she's walking on it well. Hopefully there is nothing but improvement from here on out. We see another dislocation, and it's going to be time for surgery... Going to be working on finishing up the sumo today...

Yes please, all read this. This is why we are waiting on the skimmer. I did mention it in one of my posts, but it seems to be selectively read... or unread, depending on which way you look at it. I'm doing this as fast as I can. I want the skimmer to come in as badly as you all do. Trust me, I...

I tried... LoL! I can hope.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free
