Quick update - I unwrapped the sump/ATO and did a 4 hour leak test with no leaks.

I had to push out the delivery of the tank from 4/12 to 4/25 due to coming up business trip. This week I also visited several other LFS that was on the recommended list. That's all I got for this week.

Update on the tank - I was informed that the stand and tank was shipped out on Thursday. The arrival date to the terminal will be about 7-10 days after that. Therefore, it might be a few extra days past the 25th.

However, this week I did pick up a new toy. I saw a great deal on the Samsung Galaxy A9+ tablet for $130. I'm going to mount this onto the cabinet for the Hydros controller.

The tank is in transit and is estimated to arrive at the freight terminal on 4/30. I have movers scheduled to pick up the tank on 5/2. For this week, I also picked up 2x 20g Brutes. Originally I was going to get a 32g Brute, but since I don't have a lot of space to store it, I think the 2x 20g Brutes will work.
