UGJ and DIY Rock system

[doahh]

I currently have set out to buy:
45 gallon rubbermaid pond
90 lbs protland cement
100 lbs solar salt from sams club
100 lbs oyster shells...
mix
3parts Oyster shell, 1 part Portland, 1 part Solar Salt
OK my plan is the ultimate..
I'm going to get a cardboard box with the same dimensions as my tank. I will then assemble my under gravel jet system and my PVC Overflows. I will then build the rocks OVER the under gravel jet system. Bam instant integrated jet system
What do you think?

oh and I did the math... that should be about 120 lbs of live rock... I may add more

i'm not sure what the jet system is, but how did your shopping go?

 

[doahh]

haven't done it yet... Saturday is probably the day

The jet system basically keeps stuff from hitting the bottom and getting stuck in the sand and eventually most of it will hit the filter intakes
