Ok, the base rock and live rock are in... looks pretty sweet... 2 concerns I had: - There wasn't really and mushy stuff to brush off. - There wasn't really any "smell" to it. Should I be worried that it won't kick off the cycle? -Scott

Yeah, and it's too bad that he scared kaytiiie off.

Salt, wha... ...Nevermind.

Yeah, it spins freely when I move it.. baffles me as to why it won't... I've re-insterted the wheel the right way.. I guess I'll just play around with it a bit to see if I can get it spinning again. :) Thanks!! -Scott

live rock is showing up today!!!! :) Going to clean it and throw it in! well, maybe carefully place it in... lol

Yeah, I have no idea why it would. I've had this filter for a long time, always spun.. recently purchased a new wheel and everything was great... spinning away... then it became intermittent.. then just plain stopped spinning. Thought maybe that there was some salt build up or something, so i...

thanks for the input! can i use those rubber dishwashing gloves to handle the stuff? what kind of soft-bristle brush could i use (an unused toothbrush?) to clean the rock? what kind of 'critters' are you talking about (feather dusters or crabs?) sorry for all the questions.. rock is arriving...

Just bought 10lbs of base rock and 10lbs of live rock. Over time, the live rock will make the base rock "live." :jumping: When it gets here (hopefully soon), am I correct in assuming I can put the base rock in, and then the (cured) live rock on top of that? :) Hopefully there will have been...

In the bathtub? What about soap residues that might be left over???? No thanks... lol

I only saw products from "Odysea" from that link that Excalibur posted. Is that a subproduct from Jebo, or a completely separate company? Whatever it is, the prices on the "Odysea" stuff doesn't seem bad either.

I didn't even use paint at all. Black fabric is stretched from the top to the bottom of my tank, held on by velcro. If I want to remove it and wash it, no sweat. I don't have to worry about paint chipping in a move, etc.

You should probably ask the question in the DIY section instead of in here.. only makes sense... Cool topic tho.. wonder if anyone has made one... :)
