My first 30g sw tank

cut all the acrylic for my Overflow. Depending on how it turns out i may scrap the idea. It's all cut but i need to find some adhesive for it. Hopefully by the weekend i'll have this thing plumbed and filled with sand.

started to plumb the tank today. It's going ok lol. So far this is where i stand. Nothing is glued inplace yet. Gotta figure out how my returns are going to fit around my drain.

Also stoped by AP and picked up a pistol/goby pair and a new impeller for my koralia. Fish are in QT and will be adding them probably straight to the 75 when ever its done lol.

Also picked up 2 20lbs bags of "live" sand from Petco with that awesome 50% coupon lol. 24hrs later and my water is still cloudy though.

More pix tomorrow.
