300watt heater came in the mail today. Dang this thing is huge. It barley fit in my sump.

Marine Biosystems biopellet reactor installed. Pellets are all settled down at the bottom now, but not in the picture.

Nice! Careful to not use too many biopellets to start.

I like how your tank is coming along @Crimsonvice.Your Laptastrea will look awesome as it grows over the rock work.

Went to a frag swap yesterday picked up a few items here they are.

Got a new skimmer the other day. Seems to be breaking in well.

I second the not to many on the pellet reactor easy to over do it with that reactor keep them pellets low and slow. Tank looks great.

DIY filter socks. Made about 8. Think I may just stick to buying them. [emoji6]

Are you sure? Your sewing looks nicer than mine,lol.It would be so nice to just toss those things once in awhile.

Added a float valve to the sump for ATO. Also battling a bad case of Cyano right now .

So I have been irritated with my little stand and not being able to clean the sump, due to the fact that I can't reach anything. So I started building a 2x4 stand. In the near future, though, I would like to build a 120, so I over built the stand. Here are a few pictures along the way.

Pretty happy with the outcome. I need to make a few adjustments to the cabinet doors, but other than that I think it came out very nice... And now I have a cabinet for a 120!
