Here are some pictures of the Aquascape. Going to let it sit for a few days to see how I feel about it. Let me know what y’all think! :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

Welp, I started fillin’er up today and wouldn’t ya know it I ran into a couple leaks. The first is at the 1-1/2” ball valve above the outlet of the reeflo dart (just a small dribble) not sure if I can fix this without having to add a new valve and coupling. The other one is coming from one of the seal on the reeflo pump which @Reign1 called months ago

As of now I think I’m going to get a seal kit for the pump as I’ve dropped some decent coin on the tank the past few weeks. Trying to delay the bankruptcy til it’s time to purchase coral lol.

Pics of tank with sand below! As well as Zeros cave I made (the pistol shrimp)

I have the Dart/Snapper 3600/2600gph.

Owner at the LFS gave me a Hammerhead to try in place of the dart when I went In to see if he had a seal kit. After setting them next to each other it’s not plug and play by any extend of the definition.
