Ever made a birdsnest with fishing line while casting an open faced reel? Save em and use it for filter media.
Yep... and after 30min of working on it .... it went to sleep with the fishies.

Just getting started with my tank but already love that egg crate stuff from Home Depot along with zip ties. Does wonders when I need to do just about anything in my sump.
I work in a construction company so I just had our mechanic break out the welder and make me a nice heavy steel light stand for my clamp on grow light for my sump. Custom baby!
Other than that...just some power tools & hacksaws to start aquascaping my rocks.
