Yea, the first one leaked so I had to move everything into my old 12 gal I had in the barn.
My replacement came today and this time I filled it with fresh water to make sure it didn't leak!

So then I had to transfer everything back to my new 6 gal. I lost about 2 gal of water between the switching (you can never get it all out). i hope I didn't loose too much sand. The bag said at least 1 lb of sand per gal. so I got 10 lbs of sand.
When It all settles down a post a pic.

I found that post, you asked me what LFS I go to. There aren't any around anymore. They all went out of business. I go to ***** for supplies and order my coral on line.

yea, there was a LFS that was privately owned and the crew that worked there did awesome at sw fish. She would order me anything I wanted!! Then she went out of business, but the guy that worked there started working at *****. He kept the place great. The more they make at the store the more they let them order. He had great coral comming in and the fish were perfect.
Then he left and it all went down hill. So I just get supplies from them. But I don't really like to order on line either. So far I haven't had bad luck, and i've actually gotten good deals.

I have a 3 gal tank. Candy coral, green mushrooms, toadstool leather, orange ricordea, sexy shrimp, pom pom crab, and two blueleg hermits and 1 astrea snail. Sorry to hear about your LFS. Mines great he frags all kinds of stuff, so i get small corals. I usually end up moving them to my 55 gal reef tank. I keep trying to keep a fish but I don't think I have enough Oxygen in there. Had a twinspot blenny for 2 months added the sexy shrimp and pom pom crab, and haven't been able to keep a fish alive since. There are smaller gobies and stuff though!! So much fun

Got a picture? I'd love to see a 3 gal. I told my husband they exist. He says it's all in my imagination. (he always says that)

at first they told me 7-10 days. I told them I wasn't sure my LR and LS would last that long so she said she could talk to the supervisor. So they send it in 2 days. ANd it all worked out.
