Woo hooooooooo - Now for the water and live rock

After curing overnight I put my foam back wall into the tank. Of course I had typical Don issues - cut off too much from the bottom and had to do some trimming. But rocks wedged against the wall are holding it in place and the trimming isn't noticeable.

So I put the rest of the base rock in place. Put the sand back in place and the next stage (after I get back home) is to put the water in and about 40 pounds of live rock.

Then I will have a real "life" salt water tank up and running. A couple of tweaks and some water testing and hopefully (due to the manner I"m getting water and rock) within a week I an put in the cleanup crew.

Here are some photographs of the tank today.
