Just ordered the water pump!! Fluval 106! I have come to the decision that I am going to have to cut into the screen on topIt will be better in the end and the tank is so high you can't see the top anyways
Tomorrow is plant care day. i will be taking some cutting/trimmings from my existing plants and working on getting them ready to plant. I have to add to the corner of the tank for the waterfall for the pipes. Will probably end up using bamboo to hide it all. (I really like the look of bamboo just not how it grows all over the place in my backyard!)
I also am going to steal the idea I saw on another thread today about Beamsworks freshwater Bright LED aquarium lights and order 2 of those for this tank. Probably will be next month's purchase.
Going to try my hand at the Great Stuff Foam this weekend tooOn a piece of cardboard so I don't ruin anything. Will have to get dirt and figure out somehow to set up the tank on its side in the sunroom before I can do it for real

One thing at a time. Once the pump is here I feel that I can really get started!![]()
