It's all good, the "younger ones" are elsewhere harassing others on the "frogspawn project", the number of snails needed in a tank that is thought to be saltwater, and the cost of power heads.
and that is me?

Thank you Al it's so beautiful and I can't hardly wait for it to get here. I don't dare order my sand until it all arrives safe and sound. I'm starting to get nervous on setting it up to run already, I keep running it all through my head over and over.

 

[al&burke]

Flower you are so welcome, you will be fine with the set up, just take your time. I didn't polish the edges like our good man Shawn did, but I think it still looks good. Once the box gets here its a trip over the river for me.

Live sand is like live fish, the tiny critters need a home set up for them or they begin to die. I don't want any die off so I will wait until my refugium is here and I have the plumbing set up, so as soon as it arrives I can put in the new refugium and let the water flow...The sump I can set up as soon as it arrives.

WOOHOO?

Wooh I had to go to page 6 to find this Post. Well I got the sump over to our shipping facility in New york. Sometimes it pays to be honest to Us Customs, because I told this guy what I had - told him it was a gift - which it is and he let me right on in.
Joe the box is amazing, I took pictures with me cell phone, need a cable to download, don't have one yet, the sticker on the box was great, made my day and made me laugh. It as fit really tight but really secure. I have to tell yopu people this thing first had high density foam block corner that the fuge went in - then with this it went into a cardboard box, then there were foam corners that went around the cardboard box with fuge, and then the whole thing into another double thick cardboard box.
Anyways It was sent two days, probably see it monday or tuesday.

So is it on its way to Flower now????

 

[al&burke]

Yup, it will get picked up tomorrow, but at least it is an american citizen now.

Sounds good Al, I wanted a tight fit.
